The Goodwin Club formed in 1993 during the Orange County third wave ska scene, playing shows with Sublime, No Doubt, and The Aquabats before breaking up in 1995. The members went on to play with band like Reel Big Fish, The Aquabats, The Hippos, The Scholars, and Teen Heroes. Now, thirty years later, they're back together with new music! "See All Color" is pure mid-90's ska. It's high energy and fun ska, although possibly a little more mature than you might associate with that scene. Ska is going through a bit of an underground revival right now, going from a guilty pleasure to just great music. The Goodwin Club have re-formed at a perfect time, and if you're just discovering them like we are, you're welcome!
The band says of their reunion:
"30 years between album releases might sound impossible to some, but we in The Goodwin Club stare impossibility square in the eyes and say NAY, It shall be done!
"We’ve loved creating the best high energy live show possible together these past few years but now we’ve bottled up that energy, churned it like crazy, and channeled it into our new album, 'Join The Club' coming out on Wiretap Records, this summer! We can’t wait for you to listen, come to the shows again, and . . . JOIN. THE. CLUB!!!"
You can watch the video for "See All Color" below. The single is out now on Wiretap Records with Join the Club due this summer. For more on The Goodwin Club, check out the band on Instagram.
