Sometimes you will find lyrics and rhythms that become brighter and fresher over time. This is the case with the Layabouts. Roots firmly planted in Detroit's Cass Corridor, their music emanates World appeal, fighting the good fight for all that is decent in Humans, raging at the overbearing authority of the state. This band, in existence for over 25 years, brought crowds to a frenzy with their foot stomping rhythms and original lyrics. Through sheer principal, they have successfully managed to eschew any form of promotion or hype, thus being assured a large measure of anonymity by the brash music industry. Whenever you listen to this wild music, you'll want to throw your fist up into the air, yell "Yeah!" and keep on dancing.
