50:50 Shot, named after a band member’s chances of hooking up with a girl, was created after the fall out of Chris Gold’s band almost five years ago.  Heavily influenced by good friends the Taj Motel Trio, 50:50’s music is rock with a heavy ska influence.

With a strong interest in ska music, 50:50 bassist Austin Benedict organized the first annual Mass Ska Raid at Atlanta’s The Masquerade this year.  The show went down on Friday, July 18 and proved to be a successful event.  Partly for curiosity and partly for hope, Benedict says he set the event to revive Atlanta’s interest in ska music.  The band feels that Friday was a great night for ska and is already planning next year’s show.  They even joked about booking the popular pop/rock band Maroon 5 as a headliner.

50:50 Shot has been working on an album at the studio of the Taj Motel Trio since February 2008.  Although no release date has been set, the band is hopeful of having the CD release party on September 12.

The band will be playing at the Longbranch Saloon in Knoxville, Tennessee August 1.  They will play again on the 15^th at their favorite venue, Swayzes, for the Swayze’s Ska Fest! in Marietta, Georgia.
