New Wave Rebellion

Let everyone know who you are, where you are from and what style of music you play.

We are New Wave Rebellion based out of Nashville, TN and we play a mixture of Funk, Rock, and Hip Hop.

What was the last song you listened to?

The Dreamer by Groundation.

What did you listen to when you were younger? What do you listen to now? Have your tastes changed?

I listened to heavy rock when i was younger and as i grew up and got into jazz and blues, my taste in music calmed down as i grew and studied.

Was there an “ah-ha” moment in your life when you knew music would be the path you were going to walk?

Yes, i knew the first time i sat behind a drum kit.

How did you hear about Music Tree Fest?

Through an ad on craigslist, oddly enough that also how the we got together in the first place.

How do you feel about being a part of Music Tree Festival?

I am excited and cant wait to play with you all and to see some amazing art!

Do you have plans for Bonnaroo?

Not unless i get the money!
