Bumpin Uglies

[4] The band's music features a "melody-driven, free-spirited blend of ska, reggae, and punk with a strong focus on lyrics and crowd-pleasing grooves.

Then another rapid release, their third LP, titled Ninjah: Reggae Assassins, premiered on May 28, 2013 with their first single, "Morning After".

Since these albums, Bumpin Uglies went from regional favorites on the East Coast, first starting out in clubs and smaller venues, to a more national draw, with heavily touring all over the United States, then onto bigger festivals.

The band had four Billboard Top Reggae Album of the Week placements, including a #1 spot with Beast From The East on April 21, 2018.

In a year when they had to stop touring due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hardesty explained, "we decided to double down on the music making portion of our job description", and then released a single every month; whether if it was a viral video, acoustic set or a studio track released to stream.

[9] Bumpin Uglies was featured as one of many reggae bands on Collie Buddz riddim album, Cali Roots Riddim 2020 with their single, "Mid-Atlantic Dub", which was produced by Buddz and mixed by Stick Figure's touring guitarist, producer Johnny Cosmic.

The 13-track album features special guests; Ballyhoo!, The Elovaters, Little Stranger, Jacob Hemphill of SOJA, Trevor Young, Wax and Tropidelic.

On June 21, 2024, Bumpin Uglies released their eighth full-length studio album, titled Lyrics Over Everything on Controlled Substance Sounds.

It blends reggae, rock, punk, and ska with Brandon Hardesty's master of lyrics on emotionally new and remastered songs.
