Neville Staple

Founding Specials member playing solo and Specials tracks!

Neville Staple is credited with changing the face of pop music not only once
but twice.

Neville Staple’s thirty-five year career in the music business is well
documented. From the early days with The Coventry Automatics, The
Specials, & FunBoy3 in the late ‘70s and 80’s, to The Special Beat and
various other collaborations during his solo career from the 90’s up to the
present day.

Following on from the 2009 Specials reunion and his departure from the
band in late 2012, he continues to be a forerunner of the ska movement,
and continues to thrill audiences with his own excellent band at venues
and festival appearances worldwide.

2013 sees the return of Neville Staple, ‘The Original Rudeboy’ and his band
to Australia for some long awaited shows.

Expect to hear some of Neville’s own material, some arrangements of his
very favourite old school Ska numbers, as well as some classic hits in the
mix.
