Los Able Minded Poets are a San Diego based spoken word and live instrument collective. Irrational times deserve heartfelt measures. So armed with conscious spirits and Able Minds this six-person ensemble takes to creating politically charged grooves and visceral wordscapes. With America's rich history of vocal dissent laid out, AMP takes the baton looking and hoping to smash the myopic complacency of contemporary culture while keeping heads nodding and thoughts streaming.

Founded in 2000 by Nazareth Simmons, AMP began on the road toward continuous evolution, thought provocation and aural stimulation. With a healthy stable of various instrumentalists, one is urged to not expect the exact same stage show twice. Our mission is to elevate consciousness throughout the universe with poetic verse and musical accompaniment, We BEAUTIFIGHT!

AMP has performed throughout Southern California at various venues, and college campuses. Being a group of conscious, artistic and opinionated individuals AMP is often requested to speak/perform at various protests. Currently AMP is working on it's first full length CD. Various members are putting the finishing touches on solo book projects.
