"Birmingham band create ultimate party atmosphere. Anyone going to see a Malarkey show should expect lots of dancing, reggae breakdowns and most importantly, good fun."
"The ever explosive Malarkey provided the most insane performance the Actress has seen in a long time. It was perfectly fitting to see a man waving around a lightsaber in excitement, and people’s reasons to start performing handstands in the crowd seemed perfectly justifiable."
"Malarkey’s vocalist, Juggernaut, is a pure joy to watch. A large man of Jamaican descent with deep, Ragga inflected vocals (think somewhere between Buju Banton and Ragga Twins) and a ridiculous amount of stage presence. Guitarist, Kyle, contributes lead vocals on some of the songs, his guitar playing showing the influence of 90’s Grunge bands, fitting in dirty, sloppy riffs alongside the ‘cha cha cha cha’ guitar that so many Ska influenced bands get stuck with."
