This week on In Defense of Ska, Russian trad ska band Lollypop Lorry discuss covering “I Won’t Let You Go,” collaborating with Inspector, and the Russian ska scene. Listen above, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Formed in 2008, Lollypop Lorry are a Russian ska act that just played their biggest show ever… in Mexico. Suffice to say, it’s been an interesting ride from their humble beginnings to finding international success. Luckily, guitarist Ivan Gogolin and drummer Simon Shiriaev are here to break down the whole tale.

The two band members also touch on their love for Jamaican ska, their viral cover of Keith & Ken’s “I Won’t Let You Go,” and collaborating with the likes of Inspector and Out of Control Army. They also launch into the inner workings of the Russian ska scene, shouting out other bands that deserve their flowers.
