Stick Figure features Massachusetts native Scott Woodruff on lead guitar, originally accompanied by Brendan Dane on bass, Todd Smith on drums, and Kevin Bong on keys. Dane and Smith were later replaced by Kevin Offitzer and Tommy Suliman.
Their 2012 album Burial Ground hit number one on the Billboard reggae chart.
In April 2016, their full-length Set In Stone also topped the Billboard reggae chart. The album includes guest appearances by Collie Buddz, Eric Rachmany of Rebelution, and Slightly Stoopid.
In early 2018, with a new video for "Above the Storm," the reggae rockers embarked on a U.S. tour that opened at the Fillmore in Philadelphia, PA, on January 17 and wrapped at Brooklyn Bowl in Las Vegas on February 9. Another new single debuted that summer, the title track from their upcoming album "World on Fire," featuring Slightly Stoopid. The album was written, produced and recorded by Scott Woodruff at Stick Figure-owned Great Stone Studios in Oakland, former home of Green Day.
2019 festival appearances included California Roots (May 24-26) and a headlining set at Red Rocks in Colorado (April 20), where locals Pepper were also on the bill. A "World On Fire Remix" released the Spring featured Slightly Stoopid, Tribal Seeds, Common Kings, the Green and the Movement.
In early 2020, the band collaborated with Flying Embers to launch new hard kombucha flavor, Mango Coconut, a seven percent ABV “vacation-in-a-can” brewed specifically to compliment the band’s sound with a tropical island paradise flavor in a gluten free, vegan, and keto-friendly concoction that comes with 0 sugar, 0 carbs, USDA organic ingredients, and live probiotics. The 16 ounce can is adorned with an image of Cocoa the Tour Dog, an Australian Shepard with nearly 80,000 Instagram followers who joins the band on stage each night and has never missed a show. Cocoa is the namesake of the Cocoa Foundation, which helps place at-risk shelter dogs in good homes through grants and charities, while supporting people who donate their efforts to taking care of shelter dogs around the world.
In summer 2022, the band released a video for their track "Way of Life" featuring fellow locals Slightly Stoopid.
