Among Criminals

Among Criminals has been working their way from the ground on their own blood and sweat. Self touring with 400 shows in 2 years, and self recording with 2500 units sold on with no outside help makes this an indie band in the true sense of the word.       Their combination of Clash-esque Reggae Punk, a dab of South American rhythms, and a progressive sound independent of classification, wrapped in an extremely intense live show makes this band a force to be reckoned with.  Selling out shows at home such as the World Café Live and the 941 Theater (300 cap.).  The band has hit premier venues like The Paradise, Nectars, Higher Ground, The Visulite Theater (Charlotte NC) The NorVa, Montage Music Hall, Alleykatz and The Note supporting bands like Bedouin Soundclash, State Radio, Soulive, Soja, Fear Nuttin Band, Big D and the Kids Table, Zox, Giant Panda, Jah Works,  and Easy Star Allstars.  They have also been featured on Phillys own WXPN, The River in Boston, and NBC 10’s 10! Show, and have been selected to showcase at NACA's Northeast Conference.  “The distinct, clear and pure musicality of the album reinforces the technical talent of the musicians and the good ear of a skilled producer, while communicating intelligent lyrics and important social messages.” - Beyond Race Magazine “Bounce with brains: the reggae moves your hips; their lyrics feed your mind.” - Joe Student, Philly Edge Read more on Last.fm.
