The In Crowd are a popular Jamaican reggae showband who had their commercial peak in the late 1970s, best known for the singles "We Play Reggae" and "Back a Yard".

The band also featured a horn section of Egbert Evans and Barry Bailey.〔Larkin, Colin:"The Virgin Encyclopedia of Reggae", 1998, Virgin Books, ISBN 0-7535-0242-9〕 Browne had previously been a member of The Browne Bunch.
