The Slackers never seem to stop and we should be thankful for that. They just finished up a tour in a pandemic with Aggrolites and We Are The Union, did a live performance at Rolling Stone Studios, just had a massive article about them in the Washington Post and have a brand new album out in the Spring! New dates have been announced which includes a stop in Arenas in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware (a potential living destination for yours truly).

The article, penned by WP contributor Jessica Lipsy, details the flurry of activity the band – whom she dubbed: “The Elder Statesmen of American ska music”, since the 2020 lockdown began up until recently. The write up also goes on to detail a brief history of the band and also input from other influential voices in the ska music community, including “Skaboom!” author Marc Wasserman, who calls them: “The Grateful Dead of ska”.
