About The Magnetics
THE MAGNETICS is an Italian Rocksteady band formed in 2017 and led by Olly Riva (also front-man for Italian Punk rockers Shandon and The Soulrockets). Their sound mixes original Ska, early Reggae, Jamaican music, Rocksteady beats all filtered through a "vintage" soul.
The band's first album “JAMAICAN SKA” (2017 - Get Up /SELF) was chosen as 'Record of the Year' by many SKA webzines and radios all around the world. After the Album tour the band went back to studio to record the second LP, titled “COFFEE AND SUGAR” and released in 2018 by the legendary Ska Label GROVER RECORDS. 2018 bore witness of the release on vinyl of "COME PRIMA", cover song of the Italian classic pop tune, enriched by the feat. with Tony Dallara in person, one of the greatest voice in the Italian Music history.

Tramore SKA fest (IRL), Rock N'Stock (FR). The band opened for SKATALITES, attracting a solid following and becoming one of the most promising bands of the genre.
