Frontman Dave McWane says: > _“Thank you for loving the album, everyone. We have been over-the-top excited to get it to you! Thanks to our friends all around the world—the U.S., U.K., EU, Japan, China, Southeast Asia, Australia, and you, Canada! We can’t wait to hit the road and see you all!”_ Produced by **Joe Gittleman** of **The Mighty Mighty Bosstones** and **Matt Appleton **of **Reel Big Fish,** _The Good Ole American Saturday Night_ finds the longtime ska-punk innovators firing on all cylinders more than 30 years into their career. The album moves seamlessly between high-energy ska-punk anthems, laid-back reggae grooves, heartfelt songwriting, and massive singalong choruses. Drawing inspiration from every chapter of the band’s catalog—from the punk urgency of _Good Luck_ to the reggae influence of _Strictly Rude_—the record celebrates individuality, creativity, community, and finding joy during challenging times. Led by the singles “Whiplash,” “Right Now,” and “Scatterbrain,” _The Good Ole American Saturday Night_ has earned an enthusiastic reception from fans and critics alike. > “_The Good Ole American Saturday Night_ is everything ’90s kids loved about the scene back in the day.” > — **Boston Herald** > “BIG D AND THE KIDS TABLE are still evolving, still entertaining, and still capable of delivering one of the most purely enjoyable listens of the year.” > — **Jammerzine** > “Here’s proof a recording can still deliver unsaturated smiles.” > — **Music Connection** > “BIG D AND THE KIDS TABLE continue to fine-tune their dynamic and punchy ska sound on this confident record that is sure to keep their adoring fans coming to the shows and singing back every word.” > — **Chorus.fm** > “More than 30 years into their career, the band continue to evolve without losing the joyful chaos, emotional sincerity, and community-driven spirit that made them one of ska-punk’s most beloved institutions.” > — **The Whole Kameese** > “They’re one of the stalwarts of the ska-punk genre, and this latest album ain’t gonna tarnish that hard-earned reputation.” > — **Jersey Beat** More than three decades after forming in Boston’s vibrant punk and ska scene, BIG D AND THE KIDS TABLE remain a vital and relentlessly forward-moving live band.
