Upliftment is a self-produced reggae band based in Paris. Founded in 2013 by Klint (keys, arrangements), the group was later joined by singer-songwriter, Natty Kauka, and a host of musicians of various styles and backgrounds, all united in the goal of mixing authentic Jamaican reggae with jazz, funk, soul, afrobeat and Caribbean stylings.

Starting with songs like "Open Arms," "Believe In Jah" and roots-oriented titles such as "Run Dem Run" and "Boom Bye Bye," the band eventually found its calling, led by a party-inducing horn section led by Yann on trumpet and a rhythm section with Fabien on bass, Guillaume on guitar and Luke on drums. 

In 2014, the band honed its arrangements and developed its signature style under Klint's direction. Delving deep into improvisation, jazz-funk riffs and Natty Kauka's penchant for dancehall, Upliftment created a modern, urban sound rooted in the fundamentals of reggae.

2015 saw the arrival of Charlie on trombone and Bijoux on backing vocals, and new tracks like "Hiroshima," "Love Rising" and "whole of them Chat" redefined the band's sound with new soul-inspired inflections.

Supported by MSF producer, Israel Rinaldo, Upliftment played its first concerts in 2015. The band quickly landed onstage with the likes of The Roots Engine and Youkou Kla. In 2016, Upliftment will be bringing its music to the people with even more concerts and a first foray into the studio to record its first album.

Die Reggae/Dancehall-Band aus Hannover sorgt für fette Grooves, tiefen Bass und gute Vibes, so daß die Dancehall kocht.
Als Vorband von Rebellion the Recaller, Jamaram, Skatalites, Mono und Nikitaman uva. war die Band u.a. auf dem Fährmannsfest, Weedbeat Festival etc zu hören. Seit 2005 ist die Band aktiv und veröffentlichte 2010 das Album „Inner Journey“. Momentan feilt die Band an vielen neuen Stücken, um demnächst ein neues Album zu veröffentlichen.
Wie der Name der Band unschwer zu erkennen gibt, setzt sich die Band in den Texten für Frieden ein, wobei aber auch alltägliche Themen und Party genug Platz im Programm der Peace Development Crew haben.

Auszug aus den Lyrics von "Grooveguerrilla":

"We're fightin' with creativity against hopeless thoughts & culturepoverty.
We're bringin' blessed positivity 2 give di people peace & liberty
We're dropping lyrical bombs
Lyrics are our guns..."
