 Hailing from Springfield, Missouri, BringYourGreenHat bring's you a fusion of various musical styles which includes blues, funk, jazz, and rock. A creative musical exploration based around a rhythmic structure with a commitment to song craft. It's a feeling and a connection, one you can't point to but know when you see it. it's satisfying and challenging, unquestioned and trusted. It ebbs and flows and moves us...and in the end, it's music! Music that has something to say and BringYourGreenHat has the skill to fluidly express it.

BringYourGreenHat is a collaboration of five of Springfield Missouri's finest musicians.
Richie Allen on drums, John Anno lead guitar, Nick Archambault bass, Mark Barger vocals and acoustic guitar and Markus Reynolds percussion.
Each has performed shows throughout the Midwest for several years, and have shared the stage with such national acts as The Urge, The Phunk Junkeez, 2 Live Crew, Tech N9ne, Afroman, Nelly & The St. Lunatics, Mystikal, Fabolous, Coolio and Pretty Willie.

Their music can describe so many things without saying a word.
"It's wierd how some of the best creativity can come out of you when you are at extremes in life. Whether that be positive or negative, some of the best music written has been from that. Falling in love, losing someone, bliss or turmoil. When your feeling that, it really comes out of you in strange ways." (John Anno)
