Description:
Alliens - (al.e.inz) - A conscious-groove band that specializes in world rhythms, including but not limited to rock, reggae, funk, ska, caribbean soca, spanish hip-hop, electronica, and cumbia.

World Groove is the founding ideal of Alliens.
A cross-cultural blend of sound is rooted deep in their souls from growing and living in foreign lands. Rock infused Reggae, Funk covered Ska, Caribbean Soca with a splash of Spanish Hip-Hop, Electronica Drum-Breaks meet Cumbia Dance Beats, and still more! Top it off with conscious multi-lingual lyrics and sweet trio harmonies and you get an experience that moves mind, body and soul.

Through their seamless transitions and flowing dynamics, one message shines like a beacon of truth: forget your differences & dance!

The band line up is a family affair at heart, the founders of the band being two brothers (Jamiel and Janiah Allen) and their cousin (Zeph Allen). Standing strong with these boys on stage are Cameron McLaughlin (Bass) and Richie Ursomarso (Guitar).
