The Toasters are a pioneering third-wave ska band from New York City, formed in 1981 by Robert "Bucket" Hingley. As one of the first American ska bands, they helped shape the genre and founded Moon Ska Records, a key label in the ska movement. Known for hits like Don't Let the Bastards Grind You Down, 2-Tone Army, Weekend in L.A., and Thrill Me Up, they’ve toured globally with The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Reel Big Fish, and Fishbone.
The Toasters have played major festivals worldwide, including It’s Not Dead Festival, Supernova International Ska Festival, Jera On Air, and the Rude CAT, Rude MAD, and Rude GAS Jamaican Sounds Festivals in Spain. Decades later, they remain a driving force in ska, continuing to tour and influence new generations.
