Currently ranked #1 on local music charts in the San Francisco Bay Area, IrieFuse is blowing audiences away with their energetic and unique "Dubrock Reggae" live performances! They have been making appearances at West Coast festivals, universities and venues with an unparalleled ferocity. Their tunes have begun to spread infectiously, several songs off their debut "Sun is Rising" EP getting attention on the airwaves.
The music was fine, this review was mainly about the professionalism of the band. Their main concerns were drinking, eating, and smoking cannabis. Totally fine for a festival, but this was a a company BBQ with families and straight laced attendees. Needless to say the client was not happy. Smoking behind the stage is not cool in this environment - learn your audience and behave accordingly.
Not a great experience for us (the event planners) or the client. However, the guests enjoyed the music. Which is the only reason they received 2 stars and not 0.
A great Band that fit perfectly with our Luau Party
"Give & Get Back is supa tight feel good dubby greatness...Pure bottled sunshine from the West! If what you give really does impact what you get IRIEFUSE is about to BLOW UP in 2015!!! GREAT ALBUM and a MUST HAVE in every collection.

We have a very energetic, "dubrock" reggae feel. All ages love to dance and party with IrieFuse. We know a number of popular covers that the audience can sing along with as well as fun and entertaining original songs. We often receive press attention from our live festival performances and have some die hard fans that follow us all over the state!
We will provide a FULL evening of music. We can play danceable music all night long, or reach out to friends bands and share the night!
IrieFuse is a collection of long-time friends and fresh talent homegrown in the hills of Marin County, California. Originally formed as Counter Culture in 2011, they hit the scene hard with a flood of live shows and numerous festival appearances - refusing to let their music go unheard.
Performing as IrieFuse since early 2013, they have successfully toured the US West Coast, winning over the hearts of promoters and new fans at every stop. Their aggressive performance schedule and alluring energy has kept them at #1 spot on the local reggae charts. They have directly supported artists such as Alborosie, The English Beat, Richie Spice, Junior Kelly, Anthony B, Junior Ried and Fortunate Youth. They were also the US backing band for 3x award-winning Belizian reggae artist, Ras Indio.
The grooves of IrieFuse are influenced by bands such as Sublime, Rebelution, Iration, Tribal Seeds, Fortunate Youth and of course, the reggae legends Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and more. Their rock pace and vivacious sentiments cross pollinate into a strongly motivated narration of life lived in the active now.
Their debut EP, Sun is Rising, released July 26, 2013 and is available now on all major online music retailers. They are currently recording their freshman full-length album, "Give & Get Back", and are excited for its release in the Spring of 2014 and are honored to participate in the 5th Annual California Roots Festival in May 2014.
We have capabilities to provide a powerful PA system with subwoofers, suitable for outdoor performances.
