Skylar is also a common variant of Skyler, a Scandinavian name. Template:Infobox musical artist 2

Skylar is the reggae/traditional ska side-project of four members of the underground UK band Howards Alias. Their original drummer - Jon Warren - was also formerly a member of Howards Alias. The band was formed in March 2004 as an outlet for "Matt to use material he was writing that wasn't suitable for the other band he plays in." To this end, all Skylar songs and lyrics are written by Matthew Reynolds.

The band have released an eponymous debut album, recorded in only eleven hours by Peter Miles. It was self-released in a plastic sleeve with a basic photocopied cover, available from Howards Alias gigs and the band's official website, before being remixed and re-released with new cover art and an additional two songs by Do The Dog Music in April 2006.

On December 4th 2006, Skylar supported the seminal modern reggae outfit Easy Star All-Stars at The Brook in Southampton, UK. Skylar have also been making progress on their sophomore album.
