Internation Festival - Chicago

Hey REBELz! Today, we get the honor and privilege of jamming Chicago's own Washington Park on the city's southside. This is a huge event put on by Martin International, Mr. Ephraim Martin. This festival celebrates the worldwide African, Caribbean, and Jamaican culture. Best of all, REBELMANN is honored to be invited to share the International Stage with some of the best artists in Reggae, R&B, Gospel and the Blues. Rock was birthed from the blues, so we respect how we got here and these great artists.

Rockin Nashville

If you want to play in a band, even a rock band, you have to play Nashville. And if your asked to play there, it's an honor to be there. Music Row has history. It is what it is - Music Row - an entire street of venues to play all day and all night, a musician's paradise. Plus it's peppered with all the big record labels, songwriters, managers, and the who's who in music in the Heartland. So here we are, asked to play rock-n-roll music in Nashville, but not the way we're used to playing it, which is on electric guitars. You see, in Nashville, you play acoustic. So we have to strip down the music to an acoustic version. Honestly, at first we kind of moaned about it, but then we got it. Just the acoustic guitars, the bass, and the snare. It has a different sound, but the raw sound of just the music and singing has a different kind of magic. And this is what Nashville is all about - the magic. So we're headed to Nashville in October. And to boot, we're meeting hit songwriters too. So Nashville here we come, and hopefully we'll get the Nashville nod. It's an honor to be there and to play there, in the lights of Music Row.

"INDIAN LAND" - A New Original We Are Very Proud Of!

Hey REBELz.....today is a note about the Native American and why we wrote INDIAN LAND. Did you know we are all just one generation away from what happened to the Plains Indians? Even in the 1960s, the American Indian child was removed from their reservation and taken to schools and made to be "more white." These little kids never saw their moms and dads again. They were not allowed to speak their Lakota language, or any other American Indian language, and made to forget their Indian heritage. Their story is truly untold, even in the history books. They are the forgotten people of America. Today, many elderly American Indians still freeze to death on the reservations, and food and housing is shared by sometimes up to 30 people in one house. The broken promises and treaties have almost made these great people extinct of thier heritage and their very lives. So REBELMANN wrote their song: It's called INDIAN LAND......because.....truly.....aren't we all living on INDIAN LAND.

"STATE OF MIND" - New Original

We wrote the song, “State of Mind” because of being bullied for playing rock music. It’s about doing what we want without prejudice or judgement, so long as it doesn’t harm another person. Why put down and try to destroy people for doing something that doesn’t fit your mold? So we raise our hats to those that hate us! Thanks for inspiring a great rock song! #REBELz
