Managers "The Grove St Tapes" - CD EP

Veterans of the New Zealand ska scene, the Managers have been around in various incarnations for over 15 years. They've changed tact slightly on this latest EP and offered up a breezy dub-reggae/ rocksteady collection, sure to get you skanking.

The band has toured with ska heroes The Skatilites, The Beat and Neville Staples’ Specials to name a few, and are currently hard at work on their soon to be released third full-length LP. Keep an eye out for The Managers at a gig near you this year! Check out their official website here.

Track Listing:

1. Terra Firma

2. What Goes Around

3. Jealousy

4. Up In Arms

How do you fit themes of love, jealousy, karma, anti-war and planetary annihilation into an 18-minute reggae, ska/rocksteady EP?

Leave it to Auckland-based stalwarts of Aotearoa-Ska, Managers.

Turning their ears and talents to producing a roots/reggae piece of work, Managers have delivered a mellifluous, riff-laden "roots" gem, entitled The Grove St Tapes, while retaining their tounge-in-cheek signature style.
