Here is a sample track from a live set recorded at Howard Butcher's Peace Of Eden in November 2013. It is one of 15 tracks we are releasing along with a DVD of a live performance at club Mercury Live in Cape Town to commemorate the band's 40th year! This was the title track off the band's 1982 debut vinyl release and we believe this recording of the pared down 4 piece sounds like what Lancaster Band do sound like live. Enjoy

Comic Strip Heroes

An ode to the girls around the band during the 80's, this song reflects the power of Lancaster Band's punk side, with a dash of trademark frenetic high energy ska rhythm and a typical urgent sweat inducing overlapped riff. It is all about love of course.

The Girls

Cape Town's Lancaster Band have been playing Ska Rock grooves for over 3 decades. What sets them apart is that they are accessible, and still happening.  Lancaster Band are celebrating their 40th year of live music this year! 1974-2014
