East Brunswick, New York NJ, United States (2002 – present)

Streetlight Manifesto is a third wave band from East Brunswick, New Jersey, under the creative leadership of singer/guitarist Tomas Kalnoky. Since forming in 2002, the band has released four full-length albums.

Several of Streetlight’s members were already well known among the New Jersey ska community for their roles in past ska bands from that area, most notably Catch 22’s Tomas Kalnoky, James Egan, Mike Soprano, and Josh Ansley, as well as One Cool Guy’s Stuart Karmatz, Pete Sibilia, Dan Ross, and Chris Paszik.

The band’s first album, Everything Goes Numb, was released on August 26, 2003, and was distributed by Victory Records. They headlined their first ever show at Rutgers University on December 9, 2003 in front of a sold out audience.

The line-up has gone through several changes since the band’s conception and currently consists of Matt Stewart on trumpet, Mike Brown on alto and baritone saxophone, Jim Conti on alto and tenor saxophone, Tomas Kalnoky on guitar and lead vocals, Pete McCullaugh on bass guitar, Nadav Nirenberg on trombone, and Chris Thatcher on drums.

Though the band have enjoyed no mainstream commercial success, they have received acclaim in alternative music circles, and their debut album is currently in Interpunk.com’s top 100 items, over 2 years after its release. In addition, they regularly sell out their live shows, and their first few shows at Rutgers and The Stone Pony not only sold out, but had people coming from as far as Minnesota and Canada. Their second album, a reworking of Catch 22’s Keasbey Nights was released on March 7, 2006.

    "(...) we are in the final stages of recording our new album. It will be out and available this summer (...)", we're waiting patiently. HORY SHIT REALLY. PSYCHED BEYOND WORDS. SM is a band that i actually buy their music because they're so good and they deserve it, even though TK doesn't even care if ppl buy their music.

    @BlackOps It's a joke and yea I know. But what I don't know is why someone put East Brunswick, NEW YORK, NJ. Are people trying to steal bands from my home state?
