Dispatch is three: Brad Corrigan, Pete Heimbold and Chad Urmston. Three band mates, three front men. They have been writing, performing and recording together since 1995, when they first began spreading their funk and reggae influenced pop tunes to private academies and colleges throughout the Northeast. The band’s catchy melodies and playful demeanor on stage quickly earned them a tight underground following. Six years later, the east coast continues to embrace this power trio as a college favorite, while word rapidly spreads west. Fans flock to see their live shows, selling out performances in Boston (Fleet Pavilion), New York City (Irving Plaza), Philadelphia (The Electric Factory), Washington DC (9:30 Club), Boulder, CO (The Fox Theatre) and more.

'pz' was making a point about 'I think its so cool that dispatch includes some african language and makes it sound so modern.' from 'Loren's post. making it sound modern? it is modern. zimbabwe is just as modern as most countries today. it's not like dispatch dug up some ancient dead language and put it to a beat. There are a lot of great musicians coming out of africa, just as there are great musicians coming out of asian and european countries. america isn't the only nation with music. check out Youssou N'Dour to start... it isn't a comment on the band. it's a comment on the comments...... you're defense of dispatch is honorable, but misplaced. sing along | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Two Coins performed by Dispatch i'll be sitting at school, and i see one of my friends pick up the guitar. he looks at me, smiles, and begins playing two coins. he knows it never fails to make me me smile. then i sit next to him, and my other friends come and join us. we all sit around and sing along. those are some of the greatest moments. and its all thanks to this great song. @ Oh Please! | Reviewer: Jenny Rightworth ------ About the song Elias performed by Dispatch @proudly zimbabwean Do you actually know what this means? Have you even read into the Band? They actually care about what happens to Zimbabwe. They have raised more money than you could possible imagine for "your" people. Before you critize someone, think. Oh please! | Reviewer: proudly zimbabwean ------ About the song Elias performed by Dispatch I'm Zimbabwean, and proud too. And yes I can speak perfect English. Why it should be somehow surprising that people can include Shona lyrics in their songs baffles me. I'm sure no one makes a fuss about English songs containing a bit of Spanish or French in their songs. Please learn to view Zimbabwe as part of the modern world too. I mean, we actually wear suits and ties and stuff... NJDISPFAN | Reviewer: dispatched ------ About the song Elias performed by Dispatch Sorry i never came accross this but I havent heard a elias/what i got, but you may be thinking of a live version ive got, maybe the berst live jamming dispatch ive ever heard, or the general/what i got/out loud/ stir it up/ even, plus maybe another one or two bob songs in there and its incredible. i wouldnt be surprised if thats what ur thinking of my favorite song | Reviewer: Loren ------ About the song Elias performed by Dispatch I think its so cool that dispatch includes some african language and makes it sound so modern. I would love to see them in concert. I only listen to music that has meaning in the lyrics or makes me think about how we take things for granted. Anyway! I hope dispatch doesn't stop doing waht there doing. all-time great | Reviewer: jon ------ About the song The General performed by Dispatch this song truely is amazing. i'm happy to see that new people are still getting into dispatch since they are so great. ps - that last comment - State Radio is Chad from Dispatch with a different bassist and drummer. they don't do as much acoustic stuff but they are still awesome. if you like this song check out Mr. Larkin by State Radio. I love this song. | Reviewer: Ben ------ About the song Bridges performed by Dispatch I love this song, it's beautiful. I don't really care what it means or what it might not mean but it has a place close to my heart. I saw Chad perform acoustic last night in Cambridge and even though it's been 5 years since the last Dispatch I still miss them and listening to his voice brings back fond memories of that part of my life. Dispatch continues to amaze | Reviewer: Austin ------ About the song Elias performed by Dispatch Recently Dispatch released one of my personal favorite songs in there trip to new york. A good reason I like this song is the use of the Zimbabwe language is a type of "reality check" in the world today to let people know that Africa is still in need of Americas assistance. Letting people know that Africa is going green.

And I tell them, I can't describe it. You must hear it. Some people don't like them, others have fallen in love. Its just one of those things. But for me, Dispatch is a real Utopia. Their music is just so awesome, and I'm glad I was introduced. Re-interpreted for child soldiers | Reviewer: Lo ------ About the song The General performed by Dispatch I have always loved this song, I remember listening to it a lot right before the US went into Iraq. Dispatch broke up before that even started, but they reunited recently to perform a benefit concert for Zimbabwe. Seeing them sing this song with a choir of African children had me crying like a little girl. I never interpreted it to be about child soldiers, but I've had friends who made that connection right away ("he grew a beard as soon as he could" implies that he's very young). I have long considered the use of children in warfare to be the greatest evil in the modern world. The acts of the LRA in Uganda had me lying awake at night for months, meanwhile nobody in the media even covered what was happening there. There has only been a tiny bit of attention to this issue lately, and it's only focused on Sierra Leonne. To re-examine this song in this context has been very powerful for me. The lead singer of Dispatch went to Zimbabwe after high school, which explains a lot about who he is as a musician and a person. I've decided to go to Uganda next year to assist in the construction of a rehabilitation/family center for the many orphans (many of whom were forced to kill their own families!) in Uganda. There is no support offered them, and they just keep getting hit with floods and disasters disrupting the food supply, etc. I'm getting off topic, but to cut it short, it makes me so glad when someone else cares about these things and manages to get their message out there. A song like this really resonates with people, but is upbeat and beautiful enough that you can listen to it over and over (like I'm doing right now, :) I've seen the benefit concert on TV (in HD, on the hi-def music channel) and it's available on DVD. It's called Dispatch: Zimbabwe, and Netflix has it. I highly recommend checking it out and dare you not to cry watching it! agree with both of you | Reviewer: alex ------ About the song Gone performed by Dispatch This has got to be the most poetic song I have ever heard. I could seriously do a whole english report on this, it has every part of imagery and figurative language. Just look at the lyrics. When you add the beatifully performed song to the lyrics, it adds even more meaning. A terrific song meaning to bang bang | Reviewer: matt ------ About the song Bang Bang performed by Dispatch This song is about not worrying about all the stress in life and just enjoy the simple things that make you happy. It's about a man trying to find the meaning to life but in the end he realizes that there is no right way to go in life and as long as you just stay true to yourself and relax a little you'll have a happy life. Dispatch is free | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About artist/band Dispatch Dispatch is absolutly the best band I have ever heard. Listening to thier music and really feeling it really helped me get thru some tough times in the past couple years. I really dont know how 3 amazing people can express so much in such simple songs about everyday life. Everytime I listen to them, it just chills me out and lets me know that everything is gonna be fine.... <3 | Reviewer: Laura ------ About the song The General performed by Dispatch i first heard this song when i was at my fall rally during our vespers and i liked it but i was to deep into my thoughts to ask anyone the name then a couple of weeks ago i was at a friends party and she put it on and my mouth droped...THATS THE SONG!! no i cant stop lisening to it Wow. | Reviewer: Aria ------ About the song The General performed by Dispatch I heard this song while on Pandora.com and I can't belive the feelings it makes me have. It's truly incredible. The first time I heard it, I thought the beat was cool but wasn't really listening to the words, untill I heard it again and had to make sure, I have now listened to it over a dozed times in the past.... 30 mins? =D I really would like to hear more like this, because the feelings and emotions that come with it and really amazing. If you have any that you know of, would you please e-mail me the name of the song. weshallhavedomination@yahoo.com That would be really nice. Wonderful song. | Reviewer: em ------ About the song Bridges performed by Dispatch In the begining, I wasn't sure if I liked this song when I was first introduced to dispatch... but when I saw them last July at MSG in NY for their zimbabew concert, they played it on the old tour van and i was hooked. It was at that moment that i realized the message and how wonderfully bradigan came about singign it. Im still so lost in that moment...
