The Bands
This area of the Australian Ska Archives is currently under construction and requires your help. The concept for this section of the Website is to record a brief history of all the Australian ska bands that have helped keep the ska scene alive over the decades. Below is a breakdown of what is required to ensure that each band has its own place amongst the Archives. At first, I will be keeping it quite simple with three main areas of focus which should build into a comprehensive record. Over time, I will look to build on the information where possible.
01
Band Photos
Image is important, so the Australian Ska Archives is after photos of bands. Publicity photos and live photos. This will allow people visiting the Website to see what each band looks like. It also helps to show the changing image of ska over the decades, as well as show the diversity in the range of people who have been involved.
02
History
If you can provide a brief history of the band with the initial focus being on - Where the band is from. What years the band has been, or was active. This information will also assist in building a time line of Australian Ska both by state and by era.
03
Members Past & Present.
A listing of all the members that have come and gone from the band over the course of the bands existence. Also, what each members roll was within the band.
04
End Goal
The end goal of the band section of the Australian Ska Archives is to ensure that all the bands who have played a part in keeping Australian Ska alive, are given their rightful place in history. The only way this section can be completed is with your help. This is why I am reaching out to the wider audience for assistance in building this section of the Archives.
