The Movement

The Movement
with Ballyhoo!, Little Stranger

The Movement has been winning the hearts and minds of alternative-reggae fans since their inception in Columbia, S.C. 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 sixth studio album, Ways of the World, debuted at No. 1 in the Billboard Reggae Chart and remained in the Billboard Reggae Top 10 for more than 40 consecutive weeks. The Movement’s single Sounds of Summer featuring Slightly Stoopid was released in June. Their seventh full length is coming in 2022.
