Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals, Saturday, June 25, 2016 at the Les Schwab Amphitheater. General Admission only. Low profile chairs and small blankets allowed.
Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals will follow up their triumphant reunion tour last summer with Call It What It Is, their first new studio album in over eight years to be released in April. “Making music again with the Innocent Criminals has been a priority for a while now,” Harper told Rolling Stone last year. “It was time.”

“I thought we would be more energized and revitalized by thinking outside the box and starting with new material in the studio before we dug into the old stuff,” said Harper of the reunion album. “It was meant to be a signpost that we’re here to forge new ground musically and personally.”

Tracing their roots back to 1993, the Innocent Criminals include percussionist Leon Mobley, bassist Juan Nelson, drummer Oliver Charles, keyboardist Jason Yates and guitarist Michael Ward.

Opening band The Jack Moves are a Newark, NJ duo consisting of singer and multi-instrumentalist Zee Desmondes and drummer/producer Teddy Powell. Their music is influenced by soul, hip-hop, rock and lots of indie bands. Zee says, “It’s about taking all of those influences and making something unique out of it.”
