About Me


Our E.P. Is Now Available!!!
If you like our sound and want a copy, you can either...
1) Come to a show and get a copy.
2) Head over to Greywhale CD Exchange at the University and grab one.
3) Or if you are not in the Salt Lake area, just let us know, and we'll get one to you snail-mail style.
Just message us, and we'll get one to you somehow.
Hello People,
We are a ska band from the lovely town of Salt Lake City. We're working on getting our name out and getting us heard of. We finally finished producing our first E.P. so give it a listen! And if you like us and think we're just fantastic tell your friends!
Right now we're fairly defunct. At the end of the summer Jimin's moving and the rest of us are moving on. We'll hopefully play the occasional show when he's in town and we're planning on one more at the end of the summer so we'll keep you posted. We also are trying to get a full length recorded this summer so look out for that.
With love,
Illegal Beagle

Illegal Beagle
13th South EP
Self-Released
Street: 01.31

Illegal Beagle = Unsteady + Big D & the Kids Table + Fews & Two

Hey, non-traditional ska bands in Utah: this is how you’re supposed to be doing it. The members of Illegal Beagle seem to have ignored nearly all of the ska made during their lifetimes and pick it up right after the two-tone movement, injecting an urgency and attitude into ska while keeping the rhythm in tact. “High Tide” is a great example of a ska-punk song done right, complete with crunchy guitar, minimal horns, “whoa-ohs” and a tight rhythm, while “Mind Control” substitutes the horns for plenty of violin and some call-and-response vocals. These guys (and girls) are still crazy young, so they’re a little rough around the edges, but this EP shows a lot of promise and proves that ska still ain’t dead in Utah.–Ricky Vigil
