Rated on Jambase.com as one of the hardest touring bands in 2007, Public Property kicked off 2008 with a tour to Hawaii and is now gearing up for spring, summer, and fall tours of the mainland US. Their much anticipated 4th studio album will be released later this year. "Public Property has a sound that is full-tilt reggae even though they don't try to sing in fake patois and write original material that actually sounds original. Lots of syncopated rhythm breaks, bursts of pure groove and passionate musical interludes flesh out songs written by various band members . . ." – The Beat Magazine Visit www.publicprop.com for booking information and contact.

***JOIN THE PUBLIC PROPERTY STREET TEAM*** Contact us for details if you'd like to help promote PP in your area. Participation is greatly appreciated and can earn you cool stuff(!) like free admission to shows, PP merchandise, a tour of the Public Property Fun House, and more!!!
