It is a little-known fact that most Amish practice a tradition similar to the Christian “Confirmation” and Jewish “Bar Mitzvah” called “Rumspringa” (literal translation: “running around”) in which Amish children at the age of 16 have an opportunity to live free of the strict Amish code of conduct before deciding if they want to come back and be baptized into the Amish church.
Surprisingly, virtually all of the youths return.
But sometimes they don’t.
Four out of the original six members of The Amish Outlaws were born and raised in Lancaster, PA and had a strict Amish upbringing. No electricity from land lines, no alcohol, no musical instruments, but their spirits were too wild for the Amish lifestyle. Once they trampled in the Devil’s Playground, there was no turning back. In the years since Rumspringa, the members of the Amish Outlaws have become very well acclimated to the pleasures and vices of the modern world... music, most of all. Hip hop, rock, country, metal, disco, opera. There is no genre they do not touch upon.
Thus, with a bold lust for life and a fire for music and performance that can only come from 16 years of repression, The Amish Outlaws were unleashed upon the world.

Fronted by the electrifying Jamie Leiter Cannon and Matt Cannon, this band doesn’t play shows — they ignite them! Jamie’s powerhouse vocals and commanding stage presence, paired with Matt’s energy and charm, make every performance a full-on experience.
With their contagious chemistry and a wild sense of humor, New Normal knows how to break down the barrier between band and crowd. Their playful banter and spontaneous antics turn strangers into a dance floor full of new friends. The result? A room buzzing with energy, laughter, and the kind of memories that last way beyond closing time. Their playlist is a genre-jumping joyride — classic throwbacks reimagined with edge, and modern hits delivered with punch and personality. Whether you’re into ‘90s jams or top 40 bangers, they’ve got a mashup that’ll get you moving.
