Stop The Presses Biography

Originally formed in 2010 by Ali Culotta and Danny Portilla, Stop The Presses has come a long way. Residing in Brooklyn, NY, Stop the Presses band delivers an incredible mix of traditional ska & reggae with pop hooks – new wave style and punk rock attitude with a splash of British 2-Tone.

In 2019, they released “Money in the Bank”, produced by Agent Jay and featuring Dave Hillyard of The Slackers. This album quickly put the band on the international map with its retro 80s sensibility and modern edge that won over ska fans of all types! Lockdown 2020 brought multiple high-profile live streams, collaborative videos, and their “Dub in the Bank” 7-inch release. In 2021, Stop the Presses hit the ground running with an east coast tour, a stand-out performance at Supernova Ska Festival and the contribution of their single “Make the Best of It” for the Jump Up / Supernova Alpha Boys School benefit double album “SKA CARES”.

In 2022 the band recorded their second full-length “Got It” right before heading out on an extensive US tour including an official SXSW showcase and a return performance at Supernova. This new album was entirely recorded in Brooklyn, mixed once again by AGENT JAY at STABBY ROAD. Eight tracks that prove how exciting and diverse a modern traditional ska band can be! Includes a fantastic cover of Bikini Kill’s “Rebel Girl”! As Agent Jay describes them: “A live natural feel, but a big sound with detailed arrangements.”

This year, Stop the Presses was featured as tour support with the legendary ska punk band Mustard Plug, and is honored to be apart of the following festivals this year; The Victoria Ska & Reggae Festival, Stoop Fest, This is Not Croydon Fest, Steel City Ska Fest, and Camp Punksylvania .
