How did Ska music spread to other parts of the world?

Ska music spread internationally during the 1960s, largely through Jamaican immigrants moving to the United Kingdom. The genre gained popularity in the UK, where it was embraced by the mod and skinhead subcultures. The Two Tone movement in the late 1970s further helped to bring Ska to a wider audience, blending punk rock influences with traditional Ska sounds, leading to a global resurgence.
