The Slackers, the Screw Ups
Still Rude, Still Reckless
Still grooving after almost 25 years, New York City’s Slackers are one of only a handful of third-wave ska bands to make it to the 2000s. Where other bands of the generation proved too gimmicky to last, the Slackers’ longevity is a testament to their timeless fusion of reggae, rocksteady, ska and American R&B. It’s a laid-back hybrid that front man Vic Ruggiero aptly calls “Jamaican rock and roll.” Catch the Slackers at the Higher Ground Showcase Lounge in South Burlington on Thursday, November 12, with the Screw Ups.
