CRAZY BALDHEAD was started as a studio band in 1997 at Version City by AGENT JAY, guitarist of NYC’s ska/reggae/soul legends THE SLACKERS. Playing Rocksteady, traditional Ska, and Skinhead / Early Reggae, with occasional forays into Punk, Country, and other sounds is what they do best. The band was made up of Version City regulars Eddie Ocampo (drums), Vic Ruggiero (organ, piano), Victor Rice (bass), and Jay on guitar. When Victor Rice departed for Brazil he was replaced by Dan Jeselsohn, and Phil Wartell now shares drumming duty. Other members of the “Brooklyn Rocksteady” scene and worldwide Ska community continue to grace the studio and stage with the band, including Dave Hillyard on sax, Buford O’Sullivan on trombone, and Maddie Ruthless . Lately CRAZY BALDHEAD has become the top traditional Ska, Rocksteady backup band in New York for classic Jamaican artists such as Ken Boothe, Stranger Cole, Patsy Small, and Keith & Tex. The band has released three full-length albums, and the latest “BOOTS EMBRACES” now gets the DUB treatment with a vinyl release on JUMP UP. Get yours today – blue vinyl limited to 250 copies!
