The Liptones story begun in Tidaholm 1997 when singer and guitarist Mo Brodén and bassplayer Mårten started "Monk"-a 2 piceband that  played ska with a very punky edge to it. Soon Mo´s old punkbandmate and drummer Kaka joined forces and they changed their name to The Liptones!...but what is a skaband without horns..nothing,! So trumpetyoungster Snick and the mighty saxophonegod PA gave The Liptones that good ska feeling that they needed! Now The Liptones were ready for some serious action and started to get a reputation as a good liveband but something was missing..a Hammond organ ofcourse! .. Henke got the job and in the spring 2000 The Liptones were complete.


A few demos were recorded before swedish Skalabel A.M.T.Y Records singed The Liptones and full-lengthalbum "Latest News" was relesed in 2002 followed up by the Ep "Espandrillos" in 2003. A splitsingle with their good friends The Bustups was also relesed .

Their second full -length album "In English" was relesed in 2006 and The Liptones is now considered as one of Swedens biggest skabands and with many tours in Sweden and Europe they have a strong reputation as a hell of a live act!
