From Martin Luther King Jr Holiday parades, to parties, to small clubs and coffee shops to renowned venues such as The Whiskey Au Go Go, the Showcase Theatre, The Knitting Factory, Chain Reaction, the Allen Theatre, BB King's Blues Club in LA, their hard work brought them from a garage band gradually up to headlining and selling out large show events at world renowned venues such as BB King's Blues Club in LA.

The Guilty Parties play a very wide range of musical styles and have many musical influences. From smooth reggae, to Punk Rock, to third wave and traditional ska, to funk, to indie rock, jazz, hip hop, etc, the Guilty Parties taste good for every occasion. The instrumentation is very unique and includes a large 5-piece horn section, 2 guitars, a drummer, bassist, and two singers. With the experience of putting on well over a few hundred shows shows, the Guilty Parties know how to get a crowd going, which earned them an ever-growing, faithful following.

Lyrics
Thanks for Being There intro: its cool that you left cuz we dont need you now im surprised about just how quickly things worked out hope you cant stand the thought of us makin a good song lately but i guess youll never know the feeling, cuz we wont tell you how it is to be good you were there from the beginning of our band, you said you liked our style you were surprised how good we were together now you just walked out you didnt have to do anything, just sit there and play guitar turned and faced the wall, in the corner, scared of talent huh? everyone knew that you were good but you left us, we needed to fill your spot somehow look at us now, we changed around, we're so good it makes you wanna sing along chorus: thanks for bein there, anytime we needed you we could count on you, we could really count on you you helped us out so much, anytime we needed you we could count on you....but you never cared about us did you you said youd be there and we cant be late cuz you jad other things to do we all got there early, everyone was waiting for you you never showed up for the practice, you didnt really care about a single thing we did when youre in a dilemma the best thing to do is walk away and quit chorus ....and you say you dont like ska????? chorus chorus
