About Slightly Stoopid:<\/strong>A musical brotherhood founded by Miles Doughty and Kyle McDonald, Slightly Stoopid has grown to achieve artistic freedom and commercial success through a DIY ethos all their own. Unwavering in their principles of independence and determined to succeed on their own terms, the pair of longtime childhood friends were mentored by Bradley Nowell of Sublime and lean into their rock, reggae and punk roots with music that embraces West Coast subculture and positive party energy. Warriors of the road, their touring has grown exponentially both domestically and internationally with sold-out headlining dates across the world, and festival appearances at famed events such as Coachella, Lollapalooza, New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, Austin City Limits, Outside Lands, Cali Vibes and countless others. Thirty years into the journey, the prolific collective has much to celebrate. The band founded their own record label, Stoopid Records, which released their platinum single “Closer To The Sun,” and gold singles “2am” and “Collie Man.” With Billboard-charting albums and over 1 million physical catalog sales to date, they continue to elevate their game. Slightly Stoopid\u2019s eclectic collaborations include Snoop Dogg, Bob Weir, Stephen Marley, Cypress Hill, G-Love, Barrington Levy, Chali2na, Karl Denson (Rolling Stones), Don Carlos (Black Uhuru) & Rashawn Ross (Dave Matthews Band). The band independently curates their annual Closer to the Sun destination music festival in Mexico, which has sold out 11 years in a row. Born from humble Southern California roots in Ocean Beach, CA, today Slightly Stoopid bears the torch for a musical lifestyle that resonates across the world.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
