JEDI SOLDIERS

About Me


Drunken Starfighter is a four piece reggae dub collective conceived in the Silicon Valley of California. In 2001, the band solidified through mutual love of late 70's early 80's Jamaican artists such as King Tubby, Roots Radics, and The Scientist.
Drunken Starfighter began booking shows around the San Francisco Bay Area and naturally word got out about their unique sound and conscious lyrics. In turn opening doors for Starfighter to open for top national artists such as Eek-A-Mouse, The Specials, Crown City Rockers, Living Legends, Long Beach Short Bus , Zion-I, and Bay Area hip-hop legends Digital Underground.
In Spring of 2003, the Starfighters stepped into the studio to record an eight-song album, recording six of the eight songs at Final Mix Studios in Campbell, California with Jerry (Da Hermit) Dalalo of the group Insolence and Don Budd behind the mixing board and two tracks recorded at their home studio in Santa Clara, California. The band knew that they were on to something organic and original.
Drunken Starfighter's self-titled album was released in late Fall 2003 on Stickynote Records. It is their mission to enlighten minds with their rock-steady dub sound and thought provoking lyrics. This new blend of musical diversity, is the bands staple sound that has captivated an equally diverse audience.
