The Specials – Coachella Stage

For those unfamilar, The Specials are some of the true elder-statesmen of early british ska. Jamming on organs and clean electric guitars, the British gentlemen drove any fans within earshot of the sound to skank with manic silliness. A rare treat considering the band hasn’t toured the US as a unit in many years, hearing “A Message to You Rudy” is enough to make anyone open up and smile.
