Another monumental year of Ska comes to a close......

And it's that time of the year when Beefy chooses his Top 30 Ska Tunes of the Year; and when when he does, people listen!

It's the World's #1 Ska Radio Show for a reason!

2024 has proved to be one of very high quality and it was a tough job narrowing the field down to the Top 30. Full of diversity, jam packed with different styles and different beats, new tone ska-punk takes and a stark reminder that old-skool is cool! But one thing's for certain, it'll get you on your feet and skanking around like there's no tomorrow!
