Hey Everyone,

Great news! Wahala from Caracas, Venezuela are now confirmed to play at Victoria's 6th Annual Ska Festival's Friday Free Concert alongside Outernational from Brooklyn, New York and One Drop from Victoria. There are a lot of tracks on their CD and stuff they do live which is different than the stuff you'll find on the Internet for these five Latin American ska artists.

WAHALA is a Venezuelan based band that has been evolving continually from the fusion of music and ideas that spring from influences such as reggae, ska, rock, punk, pop and dub, always with some Latin flavor added on and lyrics both in Spanish and English that search for a better understanding of our everyday lives. With their second independent production (Homegrown) looking to be edited in countries like Venezuela, Colombia, USA, and the entire European Community, WAHALA (Gustavo Casas on lead vocals and guitar; Ricardo Martinez on bass; Adolfo Herrera on drums and backing vocals and Antonio Casas on percussion and backing vocals) are currently striving for the local recognition and experience in order to take their music and ideas to the US and Europe on 2005.

WAHALA was formed in Caracas, Venezuela, by Gustavo Casas, Ricardo Martinez, Javier Marin, Luis Ignacio Marquez and Antonio Casas, back in 1997. Influenced partly by California’s “Third Wave” ska and punk movement and also by the sounds of Jamaican reggae, the band gives its very first public performance on June, 1997, along with Desorden Publico, one of Latin America’s ska godfathers.
