RaskAfarian

The band was originally formed last October 2004 with six band members and was then named "Raskafarian Drumbeat". We had two female vocalist and four guys on instruments. Our genre was then more into ska with influences from No Doubt, Save Ferris and Goldfinger. We not only played to sepra other songs but we also played our own originals. We had also played in several gigs and had plans to record our songs but maybe it wasn't yet meant to happen for it never pushed through. But, as most bands are bound to experience, some of our bandmates quit due to personal reasons and differences we sometimes cannot avoid.

Now, almost five years and several bandmate replacements later, we are now finally seven in the band, all-male, and changed our name to "Raskafarian" - sans the Drumbeat to make it short.

RaskAfarian - from the word "Rastafarian" w/c means "Ras" as God/Lord & "Tafarri" as the other name for Haile Sellasie(proclaimed as God of the rastafarians). But, we can't deny that if we hear the word "Rastafarian" the very first thing that comes to mind is "REGGAE MUSIC", so we changed it to "RaskAfarian" bec. the genre of our music is a mixture of "SKA" & "REGGAE". Those peepz that have not seen us yet might identify us directly as a Ska-Reggae band if they've already known our band name.
