Filibuster
Filibuster started in 1991 in Sacramento, CA playing their brand of Street Music, Ska and Rocksteady mixed with Hip Hop and Northern Soul. Though the line up has been a revolving door of players over the years, the band has stayed true to their street music roots. They started touring the West Coast in their beloved school bus "Belle" back in '95 and didnt stop through 8 U.S tours and 2 European tours, the latter with the venerable Skatalites. No one can deny the impact this band has had on the music scene, their signature Streetsteady sound being such an influence for other bands and musicians.
