Too Much Too Young: The Music of 2Tone and Beyond!
Too Much Too Young: The Music of 2Tone and Beyond! is a high-energy, two-hour live show celebrating the ska sound that shaped generations. This feel-good journey traces ska’s roots from Jamaica to its explosive British revival of the late 70s and 80s, honouring the artists who made it a global phenomenon.
The only show endorsed by members Lynval Golding (The Specials) and Neol Davies (The Selecter), this is ska celebration at its very best. Featuring a powerhouse live band, this large ensemble includes a full brass section delivering an authentic, high-energy ska sound, dynamic cast, striking digital visuals and authentic style, the show brings the era to life with hits from Madness, The Specials, The Beat, Bad Manners, The Selecter and more.
