orged in the dive bars and underground clubs of the city that never sleeps, The Pandemics have been sharpening their horn heavy ska-punk sound to a razor’s edge since 2010. The Pandemics take a “kitchen sink” approach to ska, blending a dizzying array of influences as diverse as New York itself. They’ve done the ska on tour with legends like The Skatalites, stomped on downbeat alley with ska titans Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra (twice!), and learned how to party live and on stage with the masters themselves, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones. Over the years, they’ve shared stages with top-tier acts from JA to the UK — from the Land Down Under to the Land of the Rising Sun — holding their own, steel toe to steel toe with the best in the ska world. Now they’re crashing This Is Not Croydon Fest 7 at Broken Goblet Brewing in Bensalem, PA—bringing the party and their brand new album, Youthful Exuberance (out 10/28/25). Crank it up, grab a pint, and get ready to dance—because The Pandemics are coming in hot.
