Bio
On Jan 10th, 2012 the Santa Barbara, CA based band Rebelution released "Peace of Mind" through their own label 87 Music in partnership with Controlled Substance Sound Labs. Peace of Mind was released as a multi-length triple album which includes Peace of Mind: Acoustic as well as Peace of Mind: Dub. Marking the highest chart debut of Rebelution's career, Peace of Mind debuted at #13 on the Billboard Top 200, #1 Reggae and #1 Independent albums as well as #4 on the iTunes overall album chart. The band previously had four top 10 albums on the Reggae chart and their 2009 release Bright Side of Life debuted at No. 54 on the Top 200 and #1 Reggae. Rebelution kicked off their "Peace of Mind Tour" the day after the release, selling out shows at Philly's The Electric Factory, The Hollywood Palladium, Denver's The Fillmore, The Fox Theater in Oakland and Hard Rock in Orlando, FL. The tour made stops in a total of 42 cities across the country. This Summer the band will support O.A.R on their tour, headline four amphitheaters in Florida as well as festival performances at Outside Lands, Hangout, Forcastle, Summer Camp and Summer Set. Peace of Mind marks the first time Rebelution has expanded beyond their usual self-production enlisting producers Michael Goldwasser (Easy Star All-Stars), Amp Live (Zion-I), Yeti Beats (Kool Keith, George Clinton), Keith Armstrong and Errol Brown (Stephen, Ziggy, Damian, and Bob Marley). The album builds upon the band's signature style while venturing into new musical genres from the lush strings incorporated into the gentle "Route Around" to the driving guitar and synths throughout "Lady In White". Rebelution has developed into a front-runner for grassroots, independent and tour driven music groups. Originally formed in 2004, members Eric Rachmany (vocals / guitar), Rory Carey (keyboards), Wesley Finley (drums), and Marley D. Williams (bass) met in college, while residing in Isla Vista, a popular beachside community in Santa Barbara. It was there that the seeds to Rebelution's future were planted creating inspiring and engaging music that would leave their listeners with the sense that they have the power to make this world a better place. The band continuously tours across the country, ventured to South America and Europe, and has previously performed at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits among others. -

“If Maroon 5 was produced by King Tubby it might sound something like "Bright Side of Life". The Santa Barbara based Rebelution continues to perfect its brand of beach reggae with their second album.”..
– iTunes
Where some bands would jump at the chance to take their music into the crowded mainstream on the back of a juicy major-label deal, Rebelution did just the opposite...Rebelution have crafted another winner full of vibrations that are decidedly more than good.
-All Music Guide
“California-based reggae band Rebelution earns a career best with its sophomore album, Bright Side of Life.”
– Jamaica Observer
“Rebelution works it on that colorblind reggae tip. Laid-back, yet often socially conscious lyrics tastefully set off beat-heavy tracks that epitomize the sentiment of dub. Truly a hybrid when it comes to genre, Rebelution encompasses the qualities of an essential summertime soundtrack.”
– Jamrock Magazine
"Few bands can walk the middle road between politics and parties, and even fewer as well as Rebelution. Perhaps that’s what makes the live show experience such a great one for their fans. Not only can they dance the night away, but they can also leave with a little food for thought — and it’s not presented to them in a hopeless depressing way".
- Synthesis Newspaper.
“It’s rare to come across a reggae band that possesses the intelligence and work ethic that Rebelution pours into their music. With those qualities complimenting a solid roots-rock foundation, technically proficient musical ability and an undeniable passion for their craft you’ve got a band that is capable of long term growth and musical evolution as well as a guaranteed kick-ass live show”.
– Pinpoint Music
"Bright Side of Life is really the “to be continued” part of “Courage to Grow” it almost has the same feel, but you can defiantly tell these guys have matured in their song writing ability".
– Branch Out Music
"Bright Side of Life' is an excellent album...The fact that they continually incorporate their own style and flare while remaining true to the music is even more impressive."
– The Reggae Review
