Los Skarnales was started in 1994. The band rose out of the ashes of local punk rock band Desorden with help from original members Felipe Galvan and Jose Rodriguez. Always true to roots music in all forms, Skarnales performs a mixture of ska, reggae, rockabilly, swing, mambo, cumbia, and danzones, all with a punk attitude. Never letting down at a live show, the band has performed extensively throughout the United States and Mexico. Los Skarnales has shared the stage with such artists as Flaco Jimenez, Ozomatli, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, the Aggrolites, Maldita Vecindad, the Slackers, the Specials, Fishbone, Agent Orange, and many more. The band now consists of eleven members, including a full horn section. Along with three full-length releases: Vatos Rudos, Suavecito Style, and Pachuco Boogie Sound System, the band has been featured on numerous compilations and live recordings distributed throughout the U.S. and Mexico, including the song “Demasiado Tarde” in the 1999 movie, Sexo, Pudor y Lagrimas. In 2010, Los Skarnales released its Fourth studio album, “Dále Shine!”, recorded in New Orleans. The Album retains the Ska/Reggae feel of previous works but incorporates more Latin sounds, creating an energetic mesh that will most definitely keep the bodies moving. Los Skarnales celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2014 with the release of “Vatos Rudos Forever, a collection of 34 songs spanning from the band's beginnings to the current line-up.
