The Selecter are set to perform a show at the Glass House in Pomona, California. The Skeletones and Bite Me Bambi will support the group for the surprise show that will take place on Sunday, June 9 as part of the No Values sideshows series.

The inaugural No Values Festival is set to happen on Saturday, June 8 at the Pomona Fairplex in Pomona, CA. Surrounding the major festival, a few headlining sideshows have been announced from various artists playing the festival. Ska revival band, The Selecter will keep the party going the day after the major festival, joined by The Skeletones and Bite Me Bambi for their sideshow performance.

The Selecter were a British ska revival band from Coventry, formed in the late 1970s as one of the essential bands of the British ska movement. Much of what set apart The Selecter from many of the other ska bands at the time was the voice of Pauline Black. She had to disguise herself as a man in order for the band to get gigs, but once they did, there was no disguising her voice. Like other ska bands of this movement, The Selecter featured a racially mixed line up, and songs about violence, politics, marijuana, a fictional spy’s theme song, James Bond, and reggae classics. The Selecter’s first recording Too Much Pressure was recorded at the end of 1979 and beginning of 1980 and issued on the pre-eminent 2 Tone/Chrysalis label. Their second recording Celebrate the Bullet was issued in 1981. Though the band has continued to regroup and reform on and off, most of the many recordings available are recompiled selections from these first two albums, either live or studio recordings. The Selecter’s first two albums are essential British ska recordings.
