Bus Stop Stallions seeks to alter the face of dance music with their funktastic rhythms. This group has rhythms and music to enlighten the mind, shake the body, and stimulate the soul. Tight arrangements, unified climaxes, hot solos, and original songs so fat that you know that this aint no diet funk! Seven members serve up the tastiest funk with all the trimmings and then some! Screaming horn lines hover over soulful vocals, blessing rhythms tighter than a heart attack. Singer Chris Varteressian sermonizes harmonies, and gets the crowd chanting in order to entice even the limpest wallflower to rise up and shine while they boogie the night away.
The Bus Stop Stallions takes you back to funk's hey-days of rhythm and consciousness, when the only thing deeper than the message, was the music itself. Their music is partly a blast from the past, but more importantly it is a propulsion into the future of the funk. They are united in bringing the world pure positivity with their stanky hypnotic grooves. The Bus Stop Stallions put peoples heads in the clouds while their dancin' feet stay on the ground.

"These guys have the chops to hang with the heavy hitters in US ska scene but also have a fresh and accessible enough sound to cross over to new listeners..."
