The Robustos were an American ska band based in Atlanta. Formed after The Skats & The Go Steadys broke up, their name is a reference to the type of cigar. Their style evolved from traditional ska to include more soul and jazz influences. They stopped playing in 2000. Rumor has it the band members are rehearsing again and have a gig booked at The Earl in Atlanta on June 22, 2007.
