Daily Reggae Album Review: Reggae pro Kirsty Rock amazes with debut album "Slow Burn"

Kirsty Rock began her musical journey in the 1990's Brooklyn Music Scene. This led to her performing as a vocalist on the 2003 Easy Star All-Stars' "Dark Side of the Moon", an album that was a worldwide breakout hit for the then rising Easy Star Records.
