One Buck Short

**One Buck Short** is a Singaporean ska-punk band that's been injecting good vibes into Southeast Asia's music scene since the late 1990s. Known for their high-energy mix of ska, punk, and pop—with lyrics that often humorously tackle everyday life and local culture—they’ve built a reputation as a fun-loving act unafraid to blend English, Malay, and Singlish (Singaporean slang) in their tracks. Recent releases like *Kampong Glam* (a nod to Singapore’s historic neighborhood) and *Halal & Loving It* (celebrating local food culture) showcase their signature cheeky, community-focused storytelling. They’ve also dipped into soundtracks, contributing to the short film *Pita Hati*, proving their versatility beyond just party-starting anthems.
