The Pepper Pots were formed in 2002 with the aim of bringing back the sound and style of the Jamaican bands of the 60s that made the dancefloors of the era vibrate.
The band has shared the stage with names as outstanding as Laurel Aitken, Derrick Morgan, Dave Barker, Winston Francis, The Aggrolites, Mr. T-Bone, Dr. Ring Ding, Macka B, The Toasters, New York Ska-Jazz Ensemble, Ki-Mani Marley and more!
Shake It! is the Pepper Pots second full length effort. They pulled together all the experience gained and a feeling still alive for black music of previous decades. This album features top class special guest appearances by the Jamaicans The Pioneers (Jackie Robinson and George Dekker), the French A.S.P.O. and the German Dr. Ring Ding. (Who also is part of our release "Kingston Kitchen")
The album was recorded in analogue and with instruments of the time, following the line of the first, but this time featuring the collaboration of an orchestra made up of more than 20 musicians that take part on various tracks on the record.
The Pepper Pots are some of the most authentic sounding acts around, with a triple female fronted sound, harmonies are all over this album! Vintage sounds and threads to match, The Pepper Pots are a definite win for any ska enthusiast. The United States will get a live taste of them in March of 2009, as we help them embark on a multi date West Coast tour coming up from Texas' South By South West showcase event. For all the traditionalists out there, this one's for you!
