This week's selection is a slightly older one. Coming together in 1990, The Pietasters got their start playing small bars in and around Georgetown. They've come a long way from that point now. They've toured with the likes of the Toasters, played at Warped Tour and the late HFStival, and have gone out on numerous headlining tours. They're biggest feat, playing in front of a sold out crowd backing the godfather of soul, the late James Brown. They're gone through many line up changes, hopped around labels (Hellcat, Moon Ska, Epitaph, and Fueled By Ramen) but they're still touring and making new music. If you ever get the chance to check them out live, definitely do so. They're an amazing band that'll get you skankin all night long.
Here are a couple live tracks from the band:
Girl Take It Easy
