Together communicates a strong call to action for people to come together and help make changes in today’s world to help protect future generations.
In a statement shared via Ineffable Music, Mike Love said, “This project has been a long time in the making. Back in 2013 I did my first mainland tour with my sister Paula Fuga, opening for my favorite band, Groundation. We all quickly became great friends and shared many magical moments on that tour. It was an incredibly uplifting feeling to be so encouraged and supported by my musical heroes, to have them actually go out into the audience and watch our sets night after night. It’s a friendship that has lasted throughout the years, as we’ve crossed paths again and again on our journeys sharing our music around the world. Initially my dear brother Marcus Urani reached out about a feature for a song on Rising Tide’s new album, and it worked so well we just kept going and it grew into a partnership. This music is so pertinent to the times that we are living in. Our hope is that it can bring much-needed healing, awakening and togetherness in a time of so much controlled chaos, division and animosity.”
Reggae at its core brings people together and inspires change. Mike Love and Rising Tide do just that by calling for action now.
Together by Mike Love and Rising Tide is the Daily Reggae Song of the Day.
