Prior to the 1990's, Arena Rock was characterized by competitive musicianship, catchy songwriting, and vivid showmanship. What has since changed in the post-grunge era is that modern popular rock music is now dominated by heavy rhythms and dark, introspective lyrics. What Denver's Rightfully Accused brings to the table is the best of both worlds; real meaning and depth behind upbeat, infectious hooks, driving rhythm, and upfront walls of guitar, with an explosive and energetic live show - an honest, inspiring rock sound in a modern context.
Formed in 1998, Rightfully Accused set out to return straight- ahead, powerful rock to the forefront of popular music. Entering Denver's live music scene before any of the members would have otherwise been permitted on any of the premises, and releasing their debut album "LA or Bust" (NLA) in 2001, Rightfully Accused cut their teeth at an early age. Rightfully Accused continued to press on through the following years by releasing new LPs, and single recordings, as well as performing regularly around the Denver area.
Rightfully Accused's latest chapter begins with a slew of national openings for some of rock’s biggest acts, and finalist placement in several competitions including Denver Rock Station KPBI's “Best Band in Denver” competition in 2006 and again in 2007. In February of 2009 Rightfully Accused released their latest album “Ready or Not...” which they describe as “the summary of an era”, as well as “a peek into the future”. The band has also begun work on a series of LP’s with the first anticipated release beginning mid-summer 2009.
Without overzealous inventiveness or experimentation, yet not over-simplistic, Rightfully Accused has always - and will always - draw from familiar aspects of the best of rock music to push modern music forward, and to convey the same sincere emotion that modern rock audiences are yearning to experience at a live concert. With a unique sound, hefty doses of conviction and authenticity in every aspect of their being, Rightfully Accused will continue to push boundaries and expectations through 2009 and into the future, welcoming any opportunity to introduce new audiences to what they've been waiting to hear.

What Fans Are Saying:
From our 2008 A-list nomination:
-"Wonderful band. The music rocks and the guys are great!!"
-"These guys have alot of heart, alot of talent and you can tell they truly love performing! "
-"I went and saw them last night at the Grizzly Rose. They were the opening act for Firehouse and Skid Row. They were AWESOME! I'll be front stage for now on at all their shows. Sean Murray has a way of bringing you on stage with his presence. He is awesome! The entire band are really nice and seriously kick @$$ on stage. Great show guys!" ~Sara aka.. Angelic Beauty
-"I've been going to see this band for about a year and a half and I think they have the potential to be one of the biggest bands in Colorado! Their shows are always fun and high energy and they will rock your socks off!" -Metal Tears Photography
-"I've been a Rightfully Accused fan since it started in the late 1990's. Each year they continue to impress me and surpass all expectations. They have a fresh, dynamic sound, which is seemingly difficult to find these days. They usually play several rockin' shows a month, all over the state of Colorado, and even up into Wyoming. Good luck Rightfully Accused!!"
-"Best original band in the state!!!"
-"We accidently saw RA before a Warrent show. We were stunned with this awesome band. They put on a very professional show and their tunes were out of this world. We have been following them around and see them whenever we can, usually dragging a host of friends so they can experience true rock, played from the heart."
-"A badass band, which is obviously driven by heart and passion. They have been around for a while now, and they are definitely not some cookie cutter band. They make just fun, good, rock. Not this crappy cry about how my daddy didnt love me music, thats been big the past 10 years. Its a breath of fresh air."
-"Rightfully Accused's music gets you moving and doesn't let you stop. If you can sit still through one of their songs you are either deaf or dead. They have a great stage presence with musical talent to match."
-"Rightfully Accused brings the best qualities of several different genres of music together to make something that everyone can enjoy. The melodies and harmonies are pleasant to listen to, they bring great energy into every performance, and they can really bring the audience to life. This band is going to do great things and make a big hit in the music world."
