*"From addictive reggae pop songs to consciously charged roots rhythms and berzerk electronic improvisations, the grace and precision with which Roots of Creation execute their bass-heavy works is overwhelming. Their roots are tinged with rock, their rock brushed with electronica, and they're as likely to dash off into a 10-minute guitar-led groove as they are to perform righteous vocal songs that resonate like the roots-rock classics of old." — Homegrown Music Network*

Whether on the festival circuit, performing at jam favorites like *Gathering of The Vibes, Wakarusa, Camp Bisco, and Closer to the Sun*, or sharing the stage at sold out shows with some of their diverse influences including *Slightly Stoopid, The Wailers, Fishbone, and Michael Franti, reggae/rock/dubtronica band Roots of Creation (RoC)* offer up a high-energy, infectious experience. Recognized as a *Top 20 artist on the Relix/Jamband radio chart*, a festival staple, and an internationally touring powerhouse, RoC have been awarded *"Favorite Jam Band"* by Cider Magazine and *"Best Band In New Hampshire"* by the New England Music Awards. RoC mix their jam-reggae hybrid sound with homegrown roots, guitar-heavy rock, and lead singer/guitarist *Brett Wilson*'s introspective and conscious laden lyrics.

Named after a *Sublime* song on the B-Side of the *Badfish* CD single, Roots of Creation is made up of founding members, guitarist/lead singer *Brett Wilson*, keyboardist *Tal Pearson*, and drummer *Mike Chadinha*. The trio came together at Franklin Pierce College in *New Hampshire* where they embraced the state motto, *"Live Free or Die,"* in their music and message. Today the original trio is joined by newest members *Billy Kottage* (Reel Big Fish) on trombone, rhythm guitar, keys and harmony vocals, *Andrew Riordan* on saxophone, synth and harmony vocals, and *Nick Minicucci*on bass guitar.
