After two nights of Sublime with Rome, the Amp keeps the alternative reggae weekend going with Iration. Their “Live from Paradise! Tour” will feature special guests Pepper, Fortunate Youth, and Katastro on Saturday, July 27, 2019!

Iration is an alternative/reggae group of musicians, formed in Isla Vista, CA. Their deep-rooted reggae influence is fused with elements of rock and pop to create smooth, original sounds. “We’re all about luv,” states the band. The group is made up of members Micah Pueschel (Guitar/Lead Vocals), Adam Taylor (Bass), Joseph Dickens (Drums), Cayson Peterson (Keyboard/Synth), and Micah Brown (Guitar/Vocals). Most of the members of Iration met while growing up in Hawaii but the band members reconnected in Santa Barbara, CA circa 2004 – the exception being Micah Brown, a California native, who officially joined the group in 2014.

Iration has been touring nationally since 2008, performing at festivals nationwide from Lollapalooza, Sunfest to Hangout, and closing stages at festivals like Bottlerock and Outside Lands. These Hawaiian-bred musicians look forward to spreading their original sound and ‘Aloha Spirit’, all the while never forgetting to get a surf in when possible.

Pepper’s storied career began in 1997 when the trio moved to the mainland from their hometown of Kailua Kona, Hawaii. Since then, Pepper has toured extensively with groups like 311, Slightly Stoopid, Flogging Molly and Sublime With Rome, and spent several summers on Warped Tour – and this live sensibility shows. The band’s music – both live and on their releases – is really about enjoying life and being grateful for each experience, a sensibility that’s very familiar to the three musicians. From their 1999 debut Give’n It to their 2006 standout album No Shame, Pepper has embodied not only a style of music but a lifestyle, one that’s most easily found on beaches across the world, but also one that’s relatable to anyone anywhere.
