REBELUTION
Rebelution first
united in Santa Barbara,
California, built from a wide
array of musical backgrounds.
With Reggae as the focus, the
group set out to create a fresh
and vibrant sound which they dub
California Reggae. The band
released their highly
anticipated full-length album in
June of 2007 and just weeks
after its release, “Courage to
Grow” became one of the most
downloaded Reggae albums on
iTunes. By the end of the year,
it had been awarded the iTunes
Editors Choice: Best Reggae
Album 2007 and has recently
debuted at 10th on the Billboard
charts for Top Reggae Album.
"Apparently, California Reggae
is hot. Stemming from a
foundation of local support,
Rebelution soared into iTunes
Reggae Top 10 (album downloads),
amongst some lofty company.
Lofty like Bob, Stephen, and
Damian Marley."

Rebelution's
dynamic sound is led by diverse
vocalist and guitarist Eric
Rachmany. Together with the
elevating melodies of Rory Carey
keyboards and hard-hitting beats
by bass player Marley D.
Williams and drummer Wesley
Finley, the band will make you
move both physically and
mentally.
"If you love
Bob Marley, Sublime, and Jack
Johnson and you're a regular on
the State Street scene, then
chances are you're already crazy
about Rebelution. Their
combination of reggae, hip-hop,
and rock have made them a
favorite of music lovers all
over town."
-- The Santa Barbara Independent
Within the last year, Rebelution
has made a name for themselves
with their iTunes success and
performances with notable
artists like Barrington Levy,
Israel Vibration, Junior Reid,
Don Carlos, Pepper, Eek-A-Mouse,
Pato Banton, Tanya Stephens,
Half Pint, SOJA, Yellowman,
Talib Kweli, E-40, and The
Pharcyde. Rebelution has already
proven themselves in the musical
arena and intends to further
expand their success with a
sound that confidently claims
itself unique.
