The Scofflaws

Biography:

The Scofflaws are a Huntington, Long Island, New York-based third wave ska band that debuted in 1988. Known for their rambunctious live shows, technically proficient horn solos and tight arrangements, the Scofflaws were one of the top third wave ska acts of the ‘90s and one of the most beloved bands on the now-defunct Moon Ska label, as well as the center and focal point of the once-thriving Long Island ska scene.

Although the Scofflaws have not released a studio recording since 1998, bandleader Richard “Sammy” Brooks continues to lead the band in live performances within the New York area.
