The Know How

The Know how sticks to three rules as a band: Play ska music, sweat profusely on stage, and make their fans leave every show wanting more. Described as "ska insanity" by fans the band has been rocking the nation and tearing up the road for about six years now. It's this energy that continues to draw crowds from Boston to Chicago and from New Orleans to Anaheim.

As the only unsigned band representing the east-coast, The Know How was very proud to appear at the Ska Summit in Nevada during March of 2003. With well over 10,000 in attendance, the band took it upon themselves to make a lasting impression. They must have. A few months later the band was mentioned as a top ska act in the August 2003 issue of Alternative Press. Soon after they were signed to Jump Up! Records who re-released their 2nd album "Happy Fun Robot Kill Time."

In 2003 The Know How really stepped up to a new level. They solidified a coast to coast and diverse fan base during various tours with Mustard Plug, The Toasters, The Planet Smashers, Allister, Whippersnapper, Big D and the Kid's Table, Ann Beretta, Streetlight Manifesto and many more. The band as also extended their reach with three trips to Canada. With more fans, bigger shows, and longer tours The Know How has much to look forward to in 2005.

The Know How has recently completed work on their third full length album, Now in Technicolor which will be released February 1st in Canada and March 1st in the USA on STOMP RECORDS / WARNER (Planet Smashers, Ann Beretta, BigD&theKidsTable, Snuff, Toasters, Belvedere, Down By Law) in 2005. From the album, fans should will hear a more aggressive sound that stays true to the ska-rock they are used to from The Know How. Sci-fi Moog licks, catchy horn lines, and high energy sing-alongs will all be begging for attention.
