They have opened for and toured with bands like The Expendables, Slightly Stoopid, The Holdup, Rebelution, Iration, Insolence & Fishbone. Loyal fanatics have dubbed them as “Reggae On Steroids”. In 1998, the origin of 880 South came from the ashes of a once boisterous Cactus Club alt-rock scene in Northern California. Originally known as the Floppy Rods, they transformed their funk-laden sound in 2002 and became 880 South. Classic Rock, Soul & Reggae are the common denominators in this musical math concoction. However it is the Motown and Hip-Hop influence reinforced by groove rhythms and pocket-funk theory that complete the equation. As one of the first genre-bending bands that skillfully blends the softer subtleties of funk, reggae and soul all while infusing it with a heart-hitting rock pulse that sculpts their alt-rock DNA. Their uncensored, witty lyrics explore the ups and downs of the blue-collar American lifestyle, offering a refreshing take on life's struggles and triumphs. 880 South's discography includes two full-length albums, "Beware" and "Youth Bus Sessions," available on iTunes. Their latest singles, "Puzzles” & “Never Been” were mixed, mastered, and produced by Adam Patterson of The Expendables, is a testament to their continuous musical evolution. 880 South is currently on a campaign called 24 in 24. Their goal is to release 24 singles in all of 2024 averaging 2 singles a month! PACIFIC GROWN
