That made them get in touch with me and I ended up doing a tour with them later that year, so I’ve known them since then.”

Nostalgia tends to move in 20-ish year cycles and it's been about two decades since ska's last peak in popularity died down, enough time has passed for the unfair stigma to fade away, and the anti-racism aspect of ska hits hard after four years of having Trump as a president.
