Featuring hot new tracks from the band's 2014 release, "Can't Contain It," and fan favorites reaching back to the 1992 debut, "Skapocalypse Now."

The music with Jamaican roots picked up influences from British punk in the '80s and took off in the U.S. in the '90s. Grand Rapids-based Mustard Plug formed in 1991 and has been sharing their high energy dance party around the world ever since.
