Streetlight Manifesto is a ska/punk band from East Brunswick, New Jersey under the creative leadership of singer/guitarist Tomas Kalnoky. Since forming in 2002, the band has released three 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 inception and currently consists of Matt Stewart, who plays the trumpet, Mike Brown who plays the alto and baritone saxophone, Jim Conti, who plays the alto and tenor saxophone, Tomas Kalnoky, who plays the guitar and sings, Pete McCullaugh who plays the bass guitar, Mike Soprano who plays the trombone, and Chris Thatcher who plays the 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.

You know when you stop listening to a band for a while, then you come back to listening to them and you say "I forgot that this is the best band ever" This happened to me roughly 2 songs ago.

I saw these guys in Toronto at the Kool Haus, and after "That'll Be The Day", some guy comes out of the pit, socks me in the face, breaks my glasses, which slices a gash (Which luckily missed my eye, but cut my face and bled everywhere) so I missed over half their set, but I'm pretty sure that I got back at everyone, cause as soon as I got a bandage on, I went into the pit and bled on everyone. Fuck yeah, the scar symbolizes the best night of my life.
