Click to enlarge imageOC'S original skanking pranksters Reel Big Fish will be back in Cornwall to play the Princess Pavilion Falmouth on 22nd February as part of their world tour for new album Fame, Fortune and Fornication. Last time these guys were seen in our neck of the woods was for a sold out show at the same venue in 2006 when RBF proved they are an unmissibly entertaining live act.

The band have just finished mixing and mastering the tracks that will make up their new album, a 10 song serving of high-energy covers. The release is set to include the band's signature ska take on such classics as Poison's 'Talk Dirty to Me', Tom Petty's 'I Won't Back Down' and The Eagles 'The Long Run'.

For good measure, Reel Big Fish pay tribute to their early ska/reggae forefather's with versions of Desmond Dekker's 'Keep a Cool Head' and Toots and The Maytals 'Monkey Man.'

Set to drop on January 20, 2009 the release of Fame, Fortune and Fornication will coincide with the launch of a major world tour that will take the band across the US and over to the UK, Europe and Russia. Later this month Reel Big Fish heads over to Latin American for a string of shows in Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Mexico.

Support on the night comes from another Orange County act in the form of superhero-like brilliance of Suburban Legends. Six recklessly handsome boys have devoted their lives to creating a glorious variety pack of pop music - it's time to enjoy a pop adrenaline rush!

While teenagers with instruments and too much spare time is usually a disaster, something went horribly right for these boys. Realizing that the ladies love a guy in a band, the boys began playing everywhere and anywhere. Show after show, they built up a local following of loyal devotees. A hypnotic upstroke guitar, and horn driven sound defined these boys, as evident in their first full-length release, “Rump Shaker”.

Opening act on the night will be West Yorkshires Random Hand who are currently tearing up the UK scene. They have been exploding across the nation's dance floors with their ferocious in your face ska-punk-metal infused intense and dynamic live show and a following which continues to grow daily.
