We always have one hell of a party playing in Leek and the mix of Halloween costumes, make-up and incredible music makes for a unique atmosphere.\n“Thanks to Dave Swarbrook who started Leek Ska, this is our sixth event here in five years. The North Staffordshire Ska crowd really appreciate the music and know how to have a good time.\nOrganiser Jamie added “Ska music is about authenticity, multiculturalism and inclusion.
