Irie Révoltés was a German group formed in Heidelberg in 2000 by brothers Pablo “Mal Élevé” Charlemoine and Carlos “Carlito” Charlemoine, alongside guitarist Tobias “idoT” von Kitzing, bassist Conrad Sievers, and drummer Felix “Flex” Mussell. The band’s music incorporated elements of reggae, dancehall, ska, and punk. The group released its debut studio album, Les Deux Côtés, in 2003, followed by Voyage in 2006, and the single “Soleil” in 2006. In 2008, the band released the single “Viel zu tun”, which featured socially critical lyrics. The group's subsequent album releases include Mouvement Mondial (2010), Irie Révoltés Live (2012), Allez (2013), and the self-titled album Irie Révoltés (2015). The band performed more than 500 concerts across 25 countries, appearing on the main stages of major festivals and performing at political demonstrations, including the G20 protests in Hamburg in 2017. The group disbanded in December 2017 following a farewell concert in Mannheim, before briefly reuniting in 2025 for a comeback tour.
