Through sheer determination, sweat and a whole lot of road miles under their belt, Southern California’s Aggrolites are a DIY success story. One listen to “Free Time” or any of the band’s signature tunes is proof that this isn’t just another Sublime-esque throwaway. Hearkening back to the sound of the Trojan Records ska/reggae label, this is one band who manages to meld the old with the new. It’s doing some one-offs around California with Social Distortion and has already moved up to headliner status at Harlow’s. If you’re looking for solid, working-class reggae, this band delivers. 2708 J Street, www.aggroreggae.com.
