In a culture that seems all too content to ignore the atrocities, injustices, and contradictions of the world, Madison, Wisconsin's KNOW BOUNDARIES assaults the ears of listeners and offers them the opportunity to "eat the red pill" and truly see the reality of the world around them.

By combining the mediums of Hiphop and rock into an organic, modern, tour-de-force, KNOW BOUNDARIES takes listeners on a musical ride exposing them to a wide variety of musical and intellectual influences. Fusing the "boom-bap" of THE ROOTS, the sonic freedom of The Mars Volta, the bombastic energy of ONYX, the intellectual curiosity of Saul Williams, the rawness of Rage Against The Machine, and the fluid creativity of Jack Kerouac, KNOW BOUNDARIES creates a distinctly unique, yet completely accessible sound that is sure to 'maraud for ears' at an astonishing rate.

Since forming only a few years ago, response to KNOW BOUNDARIES has been immediate, and their resume abounds with awards and accolades. In only a short time, they have garnered national label interest, received corporate sponsorship through Budweiser's "True Music" program, showcased at numerous industry conferences, received the Madison Area Music Award for Best Hiphop Group or Artist, received a nomination for Madison's Best Hiphop/Urban Song (2007, still awaiting results), and opened up for nationally touring groups such as THE ROOTS, the Black Eyed Peas, Cypress Hill, the Gin Blossoms, Sound Tribe Sector Nine, 3 Days Grace, Caroline Spine, Buckcherry, Fastball, & Something Corporate.

Unlike many genre-blending groups, KNOW BOUNDARIES gets props from both Hiphop and rock camps. The six members of the band are well-educated, articulate musicians that bring their own individual vibes to the table resulting in the one-of-a-kind KNOW BOUNDARIES sound. Think Muse meets Blackalicious, Mars Volta meets Little Brother, Radiohead meets Outkast, and Nine Inch Nails meet THE ROOTS.

If you're into poetry, politics, & music, KNOW BOUNDARIES will more than satisfy.
