"The Steady 45s, who recently embarked on a 15-day European tour that brought soaring harmonies, true-to-the-era melodies and an energetic live show to Germany, France and even the Czech Republic."

"Upon hearing "Mama Said," which was discovered in the spring on the Rare Breed Records sampler, everything sounds vintage: the microphone filter of yesteryear, the sumptuous voice, the swing of the rhythm, everything is there for a perfect journey in time."

"In a strictly instrumental get down drinks were not the only things being poured, sweat and emotion poured out from those dancing the night away."
"The Steady 45's hit the stage with what could easily be one of the strongest horn lines and precise sets touring the west coast."

Biography
The Steady 45s were founded in Los Angeles in December, 2012 with the sole purpose of resurrecting the sweet sounds of Jamaican Ska & Rocksteady.
Through relentless gigging alongside a highly energetic live performance, the group is making waves around the world and transporting audiences back to 1960s Jamaica with authentic Jamaican style Ska and Rocksteady.
In support of the groups second full length album “Don’t Be Late/Swing & Sway, The Steady 45s embark on their 3rd European tour.
