Iya Terra guitarist and vocalist, Nick Sefakis is one of the best guitarists in the reggae circuit today, and Sefakis’ passion as a reggae musician is always strongly felt at his live shows, and in recordings. Sefakis’ new solo album, “Hear My Sound” is a reflection of love, strength and growth and showcases the musician’s development as a songwriter and artist.
Take “Truth & Rights” the album’s first song. Sefakis starts the track with some of his powerful guitar licks and powerfully sings about giving a voice to the voiceless.
Sefakis talks about the importance of loving all people in “Live & Learn”. I love the song’s chorus and reggae riddim with Sefakis carrying the tune.
The album has many talented features like Dizzy Wright collaborating in “Set You Free”. Wright is a talented rapper that brings a hip hop vibe to this laid back love song.
Choosing the title track of an album is no easy task, but “Hear My Sound” was a great choice. In difficult times, Sefakis emphasizes love and not fear and it’s an important message for all to hear.
