Stockholm Syndrome
“It’s impossible to understate the importance and influence of the Los Angeles-born band, Fishbone. The list of groups the untraditional collective has inspired is long and includes names like the Red Hot Chili Peppers and No Doubt. Their brand of ska-punk-rock-jam has defied explanation and been foundational for many.” – VICE

While every incarnation of Fishbone’s storied history has contributed to the band’s enduring influence and cultural legacy. Today’s lineup has been met with widespread praise for keeping the Fishbone flame burning brighter than ever. Fronted by the irrepressible Angelo Moore and longtime creative force Christopher Dowd, the group features a revitalized ensemble including bassist James Jones, drummer Hassan Hurd, trumpeter/vocalist John “JS” Williams II, and the welcome return of guitarist Tracey “Spacey T” Singleton—each bringing fresh energy and precision to Fishbone’s unmistakable sound.
Stockholm Syndrome, released in June 2025, continues to earn widespread critical acclaim, Spin Magazine said, “The ska-funk-metal mavericks return, still partying, but even more pissed off... Fishbone is still getting down while the world hovers on the brink.” While Punk News shared, “The band sounds refreshed and reinvigorated... tackling fascism, racism, the record industry, and the power of love with fierce honesty and unstoppable groove.”
With momentum building and fans rallying worldwide, Fishbone shows no signs of slowing down — new music and tour plans for 2026 are already in motion.
