Don't Miss Your Chance to Catch Reel Big Fish

Alternative rock band to perform in Allentown Saturday.

If you are looking for a very different kind of musical experience this weekend, consider heading to Crocodile Rock in Allentown. Reel Big Fish, an alternative rock band, will be performing there on Saturday. The band is influenced by genres of punk and ska (a mix of American rhythm & blues and Caribbean calypso) and is known for their energetic live performances. Their popularity grew during the late 1990’s after their debut album “Everything Sucks” was released in 1995 and their 1997 single “Sell Out” became a hit. With an infusion of trumpet, trombone, and saxophone, Reel Big Fish is worth seeing if you’re in the mood for some fun.

You’ll like Reel Big Fish if you like:

  • Less Than Jake
  • Goldfinger
  • Streetlight Manifesto (who is opening for RBF)
  • Dropkick Murphys
  • Cage the Elephant
