Although it may be slightly confusing trying to keep your favorite local bands straight, The Shoeless Revolution is fairly easy to identify. Created three years ago at an impromptu gig the Shoeless Revolution has already begun to make a significant impact throughout Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Shoeless always tries to focus on bringing new music to their fans with both originally composed pieces and unique covers. "Whether it be an up-tempo funk or a laid-back groove, we want to feel good playing it, and at the same time bring something new to the listener's ear," says drummer and vocalist Reed Grimm.
With the added kick of a three piece horn section and a cross-pollination of musical styles, the Shoeless Revolution delivers an amazingly upbeat and entertaining performance that draws a crowd at every show, whether it includes returning fans, or newcomers who are drawn in by the energy on stage. Be sure to keep your eye out for the group without any footwear and their brand of Funk/Reggae/Rock fusion that can start and keep a body groovin' the whole night long.
There is currently a search for two types of bands for record label consideration.
