The Rebelution revolution started in Isla Vista more than a decade ago, and it’s going stronger than ever. This year, the band continues to build on their reggae-inspired sound with their new album, Falling Into Place, which features an appearance from Protoje and new production assistance. With a show at the S.B. Bowl slated for this Saturday, August 13, drummer Wes Finley took the time to talk about the band’s years of growth, their new album, inspiring rhythms,and disc golf.
How has the year been going so far? This is a big year for us, just because we have the new album and we have a live DVD coming out in the next month or two, and then this is probably our biggest summer tour yet. Lots of big things happening.
How does it feel to be at this point, at the height of your powers and popularity? Yeah, we’re still climbing… you never know how far it’s gonna go. Every day, you never know if it’s going to be your last or how far this can end up going. We’re grateful for every day and we’re happy that the movement is growing and that means that we get to grow with it.
