The Ship-Tones

The Ship-Tones are bringing the Indie/reggae revolution to the people.

Blending two genres that rarely get put together, The Ship-Tones aim to bring down these barriers as they perform hits by established indie rock acts and blend the original album vocal tracks with a whole new feel.

Now’s your chance to hear the likes of Edwyn Collins, Stephen Malkmus, Ricky Wilson, Justin Hayward-Young and Gary and Ryan Jarman as you’ve never heard them before.

The Ship-Tones approach to remixing lies firmly in the live band ethos and they work hard to merge the original vocal tracks from each song with a fresh backing track full of both indie rock and reggae sensibilities.

The Ship-Tones live is a 10 piece band with unique video projections of each singer used behind the band while they play. Featuring an array of established Leeds talent with musicians from acts such as Submotion Orchestra, Dread Supreme, Mojah, Finley Quaye and a whole host of other bands, alongside the recorded vocals of Indie notability.

All of the artists love the final mixes:
‘My favourite remix of any of our tunes’
Peanut-Kaiser Chiefs
‘It’s amazing to hear The Ship-Tones do what could have and should have been to begin with’
Justin-The Vaccines
‘The Ship-Tones are the real deal.......
the versions they have done of our tracks sound awesome’
Gary Jarman-The Cribs
‘totally a delight to hear what was done to my track’
