“The Doomstompers are a Punk-Rocksteady band from Queens, New York. Born in 2025, the band threw themselves into the universe, and haven’t looked back. They are Influenced by 70’s Jamaican ska, reggae, and rocksteady and also legends like Bad Brains, The Beastie Boys, and MF Doom. This organ-forward five piece plans on releasing their much anticipated debut album in 2026 on Bad Time Records. The group aims to pay homage to New York City’s grit and culture while creating their own distinct brand of ska music.”

The Abruptors - made up of Mike Geraci (lead vocals, guitar), Toni LaMantia (lead vocals, keys, saxophone), Alex Schultz (drums) and Christian Lee (bass) - are a ska band based out of Buffalo, NY that have a lot to say about emotion, fear, relationships, and life's other disasters.Formed in 2015, the band's sound has evolved over the years, into a blend of ska, reggae, and rocksteady that they feel fits their dogged, upbeat vibe. Since The Abruptors signed with Asian Man Records that year, the band has cemented themselves in the ska scene and found their voices through the genre. The atmosphere of ska shows inspires them and the vast range of subject matter addressed through the genre has made them feel at home during years of chaos that shook up what they thought they knew about life.

Ben Basile is a bassist, educator, and composer from New York’s Hudson Valley. Ben’s debut solo album Benergy was released May 2025 on an imprint of Wiretap Records called: Sleep Walk Sounds. Ben has performed, composed, recorded, and toured across six continents with a variety of groups. Most notably, he has been a member of Boston’s Big D and The Kids Table since 2013 and is a founding member of The Poughkeepsie Jazz Project. Ben brings an all-star band performing an exciting blend of ska, reggae, and jazz. <a href="http://www.benbasile.com/" title="http://www.benbasile.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.benbasile.com</a>

Girth Control poses the eternal question: what got you stoked in the first place? Inspired by the beauty of punk rock in all its permutations, the Albany NY trio specializes in ska/punk singalongs where the hooks keep coming, the jokes never quit, and the sincerity sneaks up on you. Formed in 2014 by members of upstate ska and punk favorites Public Access and The Slaughterhouse Chorus, Girth Control continues on a neverending mission to keep things catchy and honest while having as much fun as humanly possible. It’s the sound of three punk rock lifers fueled by the infectious joy of making dumb music with good friends, still stoked after all these years.
