Rebelution kicked off their “Peace of Mind Tour” the day after the release, selling out shows at Philly’s The Electric Factory, The Hollywood Palladium, Denver’s The Fillmore, The Fox Theater in Oakland and Hard Rock in Orlando, FL. The tour made stops in a total of 42 cities across the country.
Summer 2012 was spent supporting O.A.R on their Amphitheatre tour, headlining four amphitheaters in Florida as well as festival performances at Outside Lands, Hangout, Forecastle, Summer Camp, Summer Set, The Allman Bro’s Peach Festival and two performances at Red Rocks Amphitheatre. After completing a Fall tour of the East and South East, Rebelution will be headlining The Hollywood Palladium on New Years Eve, heading to New Zealand for the Raggamuffins Festival in February and headlining their annual Winter Greens Tour around the USA in Feb - May 2013.
Peace of Mind marks the first time Rebelution has expanded beyond their usual self-production enlisting producers Michael Goldwasser (Easy Star All-Stars), Amp Live (Zion-I), Yeti Beats (Kool Keith, George Clinton), Keith Armstrong and Errol Brown (Stephen, Ziggy, Damian, and Bob Marley). The album builds upon the band’s signature style while venturing into new musical genres from the lush strings incorporated into the gentle “Route Around” to the driving guitar and synths throughout “Lady In White”.
Rebelution has developed into a front-runner for grassroots, independent and tour driven music groups. Originally formed in 2004, members Eric Rachmany (vocals / guitar), Rory Carey (keyboards), Wesley Finley (drums), and Marley D. Williams (bass) met in college, while residing in Isla Vista, a popular beachside community in Santa Barbara. It was there that the seeds to Rebelution’s future were planted creating inspiring and engaging music that would leave their listeners with the sense that they have the power to make this world a better place. The band continuously tours across the country, ventured to South America and Europe, and has previously performed at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits among others.

From the Window
Rebelution Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wait for a sign, and wait through the night,
I'm alone, but I don't mind,
From the get go,
I sing and I cry, and try to divide my thoughts and apply,
When the wind blows,
Ahhhh,
Give me a sign, now give me comfort, love, and supply me with,
I see the weather changing faster than I thought
Will we all fall like we did when it rained?
The pressure rises with the fame,
And time after time we all fall down,
Only to rise up, to rise up once again
Don't stop, keep working again, don't you quit, don't you ever give in,
No doubt, just to let you know I'm a friend, till the end, till the end, till the end,
Don't stop, keep working again, don't you quit, don't you ever give in,
No doubt, just to let you know I'm a friend, till the end till the end till the end
The first few lines of Rebelution's song "From the Window" describe a solitary figure waiting and watching for a sign or some indication of what comes next. Despite being alone, the individual appears content in this silence, using the time to reflect and take stock of their thoughts. As the wind picks up, the singer asks for a sign or some sort of reassurance that everything they need will be provided for them.
The lyrics take a sudden turn in the next verse, as the singer ponders the price of fame and how it can cause people to fall. But even when things seem the bleakest and it feels like the world is closing in, the song reminds listeners to never give up, to keep pushing forward because eventually we will rise up once again. In the final verse, the singer repeats a sentiment to never give up, reassuring the listener that they are not alone, and that there is always someone there to support them.
The song "From the Window" is a reflection on the cyclical nature of life and the need to keep pushing forward even when things seem hopeless. The lyrics provide a sense of comfort and hope, reminding listeners that no matter how tough things get, there is always a chance to rise up and start again.
