Bio
Over four years ago, in a small garage located in Bellingham, WA, a group of talented young musicians got together, to form a reggae/ hip hop band. They called themselves Rise N’ Shine. Having grown up playing music on Island, it was only a matter of time before they became serious about working on a substantial project. Now, years later and after a few member changes, the Rise N’ Shine Band has become, “One of the best live show’s Bellingham has ever seen!” “What’s Up Magazine”. .. .. All members are chosen long term Islanders. In the past few years Rise N’ Shine has gained a strong following originating in the San Juan Islands and extending through the West Coast. Rise N’ Shine is running over four years strong, with a healthier enthusiasm than ever before. With hundreds of performances in venues all over the West Coast, this band has the potential to cover the globe while inspiring and uplifting humanity through music. .. .. Lead by vocalist, Adam Luft, the 29 year old Orcas Islander with a flare for wordplay and melodic gritty reggae, Rise N’ Shine never ceases to impress. Their inescapable dance rythms are strongly influenced by the Hawaiian Island reggae vibe, laid down by their exhuberant, high-energy percussion and back-up vocalist, Kurtis Parsons. Strong bass undertones performed by Chris Sanders, create an organic well-rounded groove. Accompanied by heavier hip-hop drum tracks, and explosive fills oby drummer, Bryan McCaffrey. Finally their sound is held together by the ingenuity of its one and only guitarist Eric Woodruff. Eric’s style encompasses a wide array of genres, varying hypnotic roots reggae melodies to rapid ska as well asheavy punk/metal riffs. Rise N’ Shine has become accustomed to playing long shows, and packing venues to capacity on nearly every occasion. With over thirty original songs and an amazing high energy show encompassing a number of genres of music, this band has what it takes to keep the crowd entertained for hours and hours. .. .. Rise N’ Shine has emerged, from a struggling young group of rag tag musicians, into a self sufficient business collaborative, intent on success and innovative musical creation. After their first, highly positive, West Coast Tour, the five-member team went into recording their second album. Awaiting the final press of their first live HD DVD recording, as well as their next album, Rise N’ Shine is proving to be one of the hottest up and coming bands in the Northwest. .. .. RNS believes in a healthy high spirited energy created through music! They represent this spirit through their professionalism, positvity and quality music. RNS believes in working with promoters, owners, and entertainers who have the same vision. .. .. Stayed tuned to our page for more details, or visit our website at: .. .. www.risenshineband.com .. .. The tunes that you've heard, are hearing, or are about to hear, were recorded at The Art Institute of Seattle, Bianary Studios in Bellingham, and Kalara Studios in Fremont. We know you'll like it. More concert dates yet to be posted. .. .. .............. -
