Rebel Rockers

About Me

It is said that “out of inspiration or sometimes desperation great things grow”. The Rebel Rockers have experienced both. The still rocking, hard working band, strongly influenced by Bob Marley, is credited with bringing Reggae to Southern California. They have played from the California coast to Mexico, from Europe to Kingston, JA. They have even recorded a song called, “I Really Wanna Dance With You”, in Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong studios in Jamaica. Rebel Princess, Redz and Jelani’s award winning style has been described as infectious. The Caribbean rhythms of this band stream from personal experience. Two members of the band once lived in Arawak huts in Jamaica, cooked food in tire pits and slept in hammocks to protect themselves from scorpions. The trials of all the members have brought them to a place where music is not only a cure but also a way of living. The Rebel Rockers are a force to be reckoned with. Their passion, devotion and curiosity continue to push them forward. Their music is a powerful experience that will move you long after the music has stopped.

Band Members: “Rebel Princess” – Vocals
Princess, rightfully named, being the only female of the group, was born and raised in Torrance, Ca. While studying agronomy in college, she found herself among a group of musicians who listened to reggae. That was the beginning of a lifelong journey through Jah Music. Princess always sang around the house and here roommates would tell her, “You’re a singer”. One night, she was asked to sing with a local band and she has never looked back.Redz – Bass
Redz, who resides in Laguna Beach, California, got his name from his red sun-bleached dreadlocks. When you think of red you think hot, spicy, stop and pay attention. Red and Princess, who were once married, formed the Rebel Rockers early in their musical careers. This well seasoned bass player provides a steady groove for the Rebel Rockers. He has a love for Music that brings a true healing to the listener.Jelani Jones – Keyboards & Vocals
