Streetlight Manifesto to tour

Streetlight Manifesto is a band of strong pedigree. Born from stalwarts of the ‘90s New Jersey underground ska scene, they formed in 2002, comprised half-and-half split of members from Catch 22 and One Cool Guy. While their original plan was to release just one album and then split up, eight years and four full-length albums later, the band is still going strong and ready to once again tour the United States on the Ship of Fools Tour, with The Supervillains, The Wonder Years, Crime in Stereo and Dan Potthast. The tour shoves off on June 23rd in Baltimore, MD and docks in NYC on August 1st. Veterans of The Vans Warped Tour, Streetlight Manifesto will also play a handful of dates on this Summer’s festival.

Streetlight Manifesto is hitting the road in earnest in support of 99 Songs of Revolution, Vol. 1, their latest release since 2007’s Somewhere in the Between. Vol. 1 features renditions of songs by Paul Simon (“Me and Julio Down by the School Yard”), NOFX (“Linoleum”), Bad Religion (“Skyscraper”), The Dead Milkmen (“Punk Rock Girl”) and The Postal Service (“Such Great Heights”). Alternative Press called the album (which was released March 16, 2010) a “seemingly simple but perfectly executed combination of heartfelt sing-alongs and first-class musicianship, particularly exemplified by the horn players who are in top form.”
