are an original four piece political punk rock band who guarantee to get the place pumping with some serious rock with something to say.

Andy Bambach fronts Rogue State with vocals packed with emotion and drive in a highly charged energetic performance, flanked by the dreadlocked Jamie Williams laying out some juicy lead guitar licks over sometimes overdriven and sometimes a soft chorus of guitars soaring over groove based pumping rhythm section of the dreaded Drew Branton on Bass and the ever powerful rhythm of Laurie Agar on the skins.

Their CD ‘Moondust and Mayhem’ takes the listener on a journey through protest songs that lift the spirit, enlighten the mind and rock the night. The title track 'Moondust' features a haunting Middle Eastern feel (most radio friendly track). The politicing morals of invasion are questioned in the pumping beat of 'Get Away' about the invasion of Iraq, the rock/punk 'Between the Lines' (sometimes heard on Bay FM) about the never-ending problems in the Middle East and the grungy heart felt 'With You' takes the listener’ into the calm of mother nature.
