Our Next Show Is Friday February 20th

Saturday, February 14th, 2009

We’re very excited about our upcoming show… playing at the Continental Club is always a great experience, but this time all you ska lovers have a reason to show up early: Channel One is a very talented band and you will love their smooth, jazzy delivery.

A few of The Suspects caught them at Fitzgeralds last year, and we could not understand why there wasn’t a bigger crowd. Hopefully, you guys can show them that Houston is still a great place for ska bands and ska fans to mingle.

See you at the show!

The Suspects are proud to announce that we’re climbing back in the saddle for another lap around the track; we are once again a full-time band. Shows will be booked and songs will be written. Shirts will be printed and beer will be spilled. Good times.
