We are devastated to hear about the passing of Tim

We are devastated to hear about the passing of Tim, the co-founder of Supernova Ska Fest and someone who cared so deeply for the entire ska community.

Tim booked El Grande to play Supernova back in 2017 - an incredible opportunity that allowed us to make lots of amazing connections and opened so many doors for us. We, like so many others, are forever grateful for everything he has done for us and our very special and unique scene.

Thank you, Tim ❤️ 🏁 Rest in Power
