SUMMARY:The Slackers | Support: Leah Farmer
LOCATION:Sedel
DESCRIPTION:For 34 years\, NYC’s the Slackers have toured the world with 
 their critically acclaimed – and widely beloved – blend of ska\, regga
 e\, and soul. The Slackers have been called “the sound of New York” by
  the New York Times. They were described by Brooklyn Vegan as a “clean m
 ix of ska\, reggae\, and soul that gets dirtied up by Vic Ruggiero’s tou
 gh New York accent.” Decades into their run\, The Washington Post noted 
 that the Slackers “remain at the top of their game.” Since forming in 
 1991\, the Slackers have released 16 albums\, 5 EPs\, and countless single
 s. They have performed thousands of energetic concerts for their global fa
 nbase and remain unstoppably prolific. In their 2025 releases on Pirates P
 ress Records\, the EP “Money is King\,” an indictment of the powerful 
 as only the Slackers can do\, went straight to the top 25 of the Submodern
  Reports album list. Their single “My Last Star” was a tribute to Hepc
 at's Greg Lee\, fulfilling the final creative vision of the late singer. T
 he 11-track compilation “Lost and Found Vol.2” had a surprise boogaloo
  breakout streaming hit with “Diskambobulated.” Their April 2022 album
 \, “Don’t Let the Sunlight Fool Ya\,” was the Slackers’ first char
 ting record and qualified the sextet as a Billboard “new artist” – 3
 0-plus years into their career! The power of the Slackers is nothing new t
 o their fans\, which number over 150K on social and thousands more via the
 ir direct-to-fan newsletter. The Slackers regularly perform at clubs and f
 estivals around the world. They’ve sold out multiple curated "slackfests
 " in London\, Chicago\, Austin\, and Anaheim\, as well as "5 days in LA" a
 nd their "5 boro tour" of New York City. They are currently booking 80 sho
 ws worldwide in 2026. For 30 years\, the NYC-based and critically acclaime
 d Slackers have been touring the world with their blend of Ska\, Reggae\, 
 and Soul. The Slackers are a sextet based out of New York City. They mix t
 ogether ska\, reggae\, soul\, and rock n roll\, balancing strong rhythms w
 ith classic songwriting and poignant contemporary lyrics. Since 1991\, the
  Slackers have released fifteen albums and countless singles\, while their
  1000s of live performances feed their fans with energetic sets of ecstati
 c music. The press state that the Slackers are “the best ska band in the
  world” (Rude International)\, “the pick of the US crop” (Metal Hamm
 er)\, “the sound of New York’ (New York Times)\, “is about as close 
 to perfect as it gets” (Ink 19)\, and “one of the best bands in the Un
 ited States” ( axs.com ) SUPPORT: LEAH FARMER Blending Vintage Pop and S
 oul with modern sensibility\, Leah steps into a bold new chapter with her 
 debut solo album. Drawing inspiration from artists like Irma Thomas\, Shar
