The Skatoons were formed early in 2004. The original idea to form a Ska band came from original bass player Bob and current Keys and trumpet player Chris. The group started practicing in Charmers Bar, Playa Blanca. Within 3 months the boys had their first gig in the same venue. The Skatoon train had begun!! A night held at Medieval times entitiled "Lanz´ska´rote night" shortly after, firmly put the boys on the map, with 400 people in attendance. The boys continue to go from strength to strength with a blistering performance at Lanzaid 2005 infront of 5,000 people.
