New album Always With Me out now. The Movement has been winning the hearts and minds of alternative-reggae fans since their inception in Columbia, SC in 2003. Drawing inspiration from Sublime, 311, Slightly Stoopid and John Brown's Body, they've made a name for themselves as reggae shapeshifters with a foundation of heavy drum and bass. Today the band consists of founding member, lead vocalist and guitarist Joshua Swain, bassist Jason Schmidt, drummer Gary Jackson, and keyboardist/multi-instrumentalist Matt Goodwin. Their seventh studio album, Ways Of The World (2019) debuted at #1 in the Billboard Reggae Chart, and remained in the Billboard Reggae Top 10 for more than 40 consecutive weeks. The band's eighth studio album Always With Me - out July 29, 2022 on the band's R4RE Records imprint - explores new musical territory while staying true to their champion sound. Featuring collaborations from their influences-turned-peers, Slightly Stoopid, Iration, and Clinton Fearon, and contemporaries HIRIE and Soom T, for The Movement, the only path is forward; pushing the boundaries and the future of reggae.
It was a great show as always! I love the knitting factory, it’s a great venue. The Movement always brings the best energy!
We have seen The Movement 4 times and their shows are incredible. Along with Long Beach Dub Allstars we knew it would be epic and indeed it was.
Everything about this show was amazing! The whole band brought such amazing energy and a level of passion that showed. Lights and audiovisual were so sick and spot on! Met a couple band members after the show and both were super friendly as I fan girl’d out. Just an amazing energy from beginning to end. It was by far my favorite of the 3 times I’ve seen them now. Please come back to the Elm! ??????
The Movement put on one of the best shows I’ve seen in a while. After asking for an encore they did about 5 songs after, couldn’t ask for much more than that. I’d say we all let hella fulfilled ??
Thoroughly enjoyed the show. The crowd was amazing and the music was fantastic.
Couple well knowledged reggae guys I was with saw The Movement a while back and was disappointed that it was the exact show again. All new to me but I’m just a poser reggae guy at the present.
The Movement rocked the house at Saint Andrews! What a great show from open to end. LBDAS always puts on an amazing show! I can’t wait for the next tour!
Interesting to hear the movement play the entire ways of the world album. I forgot how amazing that album is. They are becoming a top line band in the surf roots genre. Although the mixing for the warmup bands was not that great, Aurorawave put on a great show. Interesting combination of hard rock with reggae vibes. Long Beach Dub Allstars were very good but their mixing was off early in the show
All the bands - The Movement, Long Beach Dub All Stars and Aurora Wave all sounded so good, tight and full of energy. Come back to Detroit!
What an evening! Both Movement and especially Long Beach Dub Allstars were both amazing and super groovy! Great night for dancing!.
