Mustard Plug in Mesa

Mustard Plug is an American ska-punk band formed in Grand Rapids, Michigan, in 1991. Brisk guitar rhythms, horns and punk tempos define records such as Big Daddy Multitude and Evildoers Beware!, while “Beer (Song),” “Mr. Smiley” and “You” became staples of the group’s catalog. During the 1990s, Mustard Plug appeared on the Vans Warped Tour and joined the 1998 Ska Against Racism tour, whose lineup also included The Toasters, Less Than Jake and Five Iron Frenzy. Decades of club touring followed in the United States and abroad, while the band’s annual hometown holiday show takes place at The Intersection.
