We all had so much fun this past winter, Victoria Ska & Reggae Society alumni the MAD CADDIES have decided to return once again to Victoria on Tuesday, February 20th at Wicket Hall! They will be joined by our long time homies Belvedere who played an unforgettable and historic outdoor punk show to a packed Centennial Square in September of 2023. This twin bill will bring out the ska/punk faithful out of the woodwork and we're so excited to bring another massive show to look forward to to begin our 2024 season as we march towards our 25th Anniversary Ska & Reggae Festival.
For those of you that have been going to Victoria Ska & Reggae Festival and our year round shows for years or even decades, you'll know the Mad Caddies by now. For those of you that don't know, the Mad Caddies' (Solvang, California) music is both melodic and harmonic and makes you want to sing along. Although rooted in ska, Mad Caddies love punk, reggae, Dixieland jazz, Latin, polka and sea shanties ("Weird Beard"). They have released 6 studio albums, 2 EPs and a live album. In addition to their three Victoria Ska & Reggae Festival appearances the Mad Caddies have toured extensively across the USA, Europe, Japan, Canada, Mexico, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and South America. Their most recent full-length release, Punk Rocksteady, was released on June 15th 2018 and was produced by Fat Mike. In 2020 the Caddies released a 5 song EP titled "House on Fire" on Fat Wreck Chords.
Since Belvedere's outdoor punk appearance at Centennial Square in September 2023 the band has been touring all over Europe with Mad Caddies so they'll be well seasoned by the time both bands return to one of their favourite Canadian stomping grounds on Tuesday, February 20th at Wicket Hall.

From the band's inception in 1995, Belvedere has continued to push themselves on the road and in the studio. Well over 1000 shows were played in over 25 countries thanks to the help of countless promoters, fans, and friends. Though the band split in 2005, it was clear that these friends would not forget them. In 2011, bridges were mended and reunion shows were announced. Over the next three years Steve, Jason, Scott, and Graham did everything they could to play in as many countries as real life allowed. By the end of 2014, the band decided that it was time to try writing again. And now going into 2020 the band will be celebrating 25 years!
