Event details

Announcing the long-awaited return of Streetlight Manifesto, to Australia, for the first time in almost seven years; and they’re bringing best mate Dan Potthast along for the ride. One part rock, one part ska, with influences from latin, klezmer, folk, world, funk, jazz and classical thrown in, Streetlight Manifesto redefined what most people expected from a "ska" band. Formed fifteen years ago in New Jersey as an ad hoc group intended to put out one album and disappear, one thing lead to another and within a few months of their debut release, Everything Goes Numb, Streetlight Manifesto were officially a full time touring band, spreading their infectious and energetic tunes to all who would listen. Seven guys, seven different musical backgrounds, seven different personalities, one band, one unique and unmistakable voice.
