Episode 145: Music and Cannabis With Slightly Stoopid

Author: Cannabis & Tech Today October 12, 2023 Duration: 28:33

There is no feeling in the world quite like enjoying a concert on a summer night. The pandemic stripped us of that unique and awesome experience. Now, for the first time in years, many bands are returning to the road for live shows. The reggae, rock-fusion band Slightly Stoopid is among them. Their Summer Traditions 2022 Tour kicked off July 7 in Bonner, Montana. It’s the first in an epic concert schedule concluding in San Diego, California.

The ensemble was formed by Kyle McDonald and Miles Doughty in the mid 90s, pairing a unique style of California funk with reggae-inspired roots. Over the past two decades, Slightly Stoopid’s sound has evolved but its message has consistently called for cannabis reform. The band launched its cannabis brand Stoopid Organics in mid 2021. Cannabis & Tech Today spoke with Doughty just before the band kicked off its summer tour to discuss his return to the road and why he’s been such a passionate advocate for cannabis the last twenty years.
