Black Rebel Motorcycle Club

This uber cool trio are rockers to the core.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, otherwise referred to as BRMC, is an american rock band from San Fran, USA. Certainly not new to the block, this band first formed together back in 1998. Fourteen years and six albums later, BRMC continue to do their thing and provide their fans with timeless and cool rock music. Like with everything change is inevitable,  BRMC being no exception to this. Over the years the band has gone through a number of changes to its line up - the current one consisting of original band members Peter Hayes and Robert Levon Been, and newbie (singer) Leah Shapiro.

Although 2012 was pretty quiet for this band, they have recently announced that they will be releasing  their seventh album "Specter At The Feast" on March 18th. Previous albums released by this band include "B.R.M.C.", "Take Them On," "On Your Own,""Howl," "Baby 81," "The Effects of 333," and "Beat the Devil's Tattoo."

I first came across this band back when their singles "Weapon of Choice" and "Mercy" featured in an episode of One Tree Hill. I instantly became attracted to their music for the evident mix of garage, blues, folk and rock that they applied to all their music.

Despite having a fairly quiet 2012, 2013 proves to be a busy one for BRMC with the release of their new album, and N.American and European tour.

I urge you to buy tickets asap if you are interested in seeing this band live. With the size of their fan base, it is normal for their gigs to sell out quick.
