Besides the current Early Reggae wave they succeed with their finest soulful 60s-Ska including the associated portion of brass music, we may miss these days. Big Up!

The One Droppers moved their first steps in the 2003 with the intent to propose Jamaican sound of the sixties. After various changes of line-up and many gigs in the northern Italy, the band found its actual lineup in 2006: eight musicians coming from glorious experiences with different Italian ska bands like Mr. T-bone, Franziska, The Smarts, Arpioni and Jamaica Red Stripe. In the 2006 they set off togheter for a small tour with a notable feedback from the audience. The tour lead to the recording of the Ep “1D EP”, a 7 track cd that samples the sound and the style of the band. Both the live performances and the Ep collect very good feedback and praises from both the live fans and online ska community. From 2008 The One Droppers continue their live activity with even more enthusiasm, bringing their sound across the national border visiting top notch venues and festival across Europe.
They shared stages with:
The Skatalites, The Slackers, New York Ska Jazz Ensamble, Neville Staple (the Specials), The Aggrolites, Ken Boothe, The Moon Invaders, and many many more.
In May 2011 they release their debut album “The Big One” on Rocking Records.
