Rebelution had a milestone year in 2014 with the release of their fourth studio album, Count Me In, which was the #1 selling album for the year on the Billboard Reggae chart, and their first coreleased with Easy Star Records. 2015 kick starts right where they left off, with the announcement of their Count Me In Remix EP featuring Iration, The Green, J Boog, Katchafire, Dub Architect, Michael Goldwasser, Marshall "Ras MG" Goodman and Yeti Beats, available on January 20th.

The Remix EP features 5 tracks, with all proceeds being donated to WeCareSolar, Lupus Foundation of America, Jacob's Heart Children's Cancer Support and the SurfRider Foundation. Adding to the album version which features a collaboration with Jamaican Reggae legend and Rebelution-influencer Don Carlos, "Roots Reggae Music" gets a super dub treatment courtesy of Dub Architect and an extra verse from tour mates Katchafire. "Hate To Be The One" is reimagined by Easy Star Records' in-house superproducer Michael Goldwasser, and Sublime collaborator Marshall "Ras MG" Goodman offers up remixes of album favorites "Count Me In" and "De-Stress." Yeti Beats adds some more bounce to the anti-materialism anthem "More Love," featuring frequent collaborators and tour mates Iration, J Boog and Easy Star label mates The Green.

The "Winter Greens Tour" promises to deliver a nice balance of classic Rebelution tracks alongside new favorites, supported by other leading roots bands including Katchafire from New Zealand, Gondwana from Chile, and Jeremy Loops from South Africa to round out the 30+ date run. Lastly, the band will be touring worldwide throughout the year with performances in Australia, the Philippines and Europe, with more to be announced.
