We are a rock/reggae band from mid-Michigan. Our goal is to create music that is unique and interesting. To do this, we incorporate a lot of different styles of music. We write a lot of music, but we are humanitarians above anything else. We donate 20% of our proceeds from shows and merchandise to local and international charities. We are presently working with The American Red Cross of Mid-Michigan and genocide relief organizations in Sudan. If you're looking for a high energy show and some good music, Res Publica is the band for you.
A friend caught some footage of our recent video recording at METelevision Studios. You'll have to wait for the finished product to hear the completed vocals and audio mix, but here's a little preview for your viewing pleasure...

Hey guys looking forward to playing with you at the Small Planet. And good set last Saturday! Riverfest's attendance was kind of lame, but you guys still rocked! See you October 4th.
