Gerhana SKA Cinta


A Kuala Lumpur based Ska, Rocksteady, Reggae & Dub band, Gerhana Skacinta (GSC/Gerhana) emerged from the ska revival scene of Malaysia in the late 1990s. While third-wave ska bred new faces and new categories; ska-punk, ska-pop, ska-core, Gerhana Skacinta stayed the traditional path, remaining faithful to a kind of rootsy purity. This purity wasn't based on snottiness or exclusivity, everyone, by all means, is invited to Gerhana Skacintas party but based on a determination that some music is timeless.

Formed by ska enthusiast, Edy King Django Jr, the very first line up are; Rejab + Trombone, Widy + Main Vocal, Bakri + Drum, Jalud + E-Bass & Upright Bass, Didi + Guitar, Fairus + Piano & Organ and Edy himself as Trumpeter & Vocal.

Gerhana Skacinta was Edy's spontaneous idea who hardly thinking for the name of his blue beat band. The idea was to have a classic sound for it. First gig they played was Ska Clinic held at the Artist Club, Jalan Ampang. Offered about a week before the gig and knowing that the time was running out, Edy contacted few friends desperately to get the full line up.
