The SKINS are heading to Detroit and they
hope you've had a good start to 2014!

Brooklyn-based rock band The Skins will be performing on Wednesday, January 15th at Royal Oak Music Theatre. Consisting of siblings Bayli, Reef, and Kaya McKeithan, along with dueling guitarists and former School of Rock classmates Daisy Spencer and Russell Chell, the band is on a North American tour with Jake Bugg. 

Doors at 7:30pm.

These kids range in age from 15-21 and they play like old pro's having this amazing family dynamic. Their former School of Rock (yes, the real one the Jack Black movie is based on) teacher quit to be their manager, and, among other things, makes sure the band does their homework from the road!

Since forming in 2012, The Skins have played two sold out tours supporting UK band The Heavy, and were breakout performers at this summer's Afro Punk Festival, as well as CMJ and SXSW. 

After self-releasing their 2012 EP, The Skins, they caught renowned producer Rick Rubin's ear, and he's been helping develop songs with them at his own Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, CA. 

Their music has been used for the Australian World Open on ESPN and Cinemax, and Shepard Fairey offered to design the band's t-shirts and stickers for this Jake Bugg tour.
