Reggae is one of the most powerful musical genres around the world. As Clinton Fearon told us, “Reggae is about not giving up. Times are tough, things are rough. There is hate and crimes and war all over, but you know what, we are not giving up, because as people we can do better.” Playing for Change Band has released a stunning new album titled, “The Real Revolution” and we are absolutely loving the album’s sound, positive message, and fantastic music.

Last night, Mike Love and Dub Inc shared a magical set at Berkeley’s Cornerstone. The show was definitely up there with one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to! Dub Inc started the night with their feel good and interactive set that inspired the audience to dance and groove. The France-based band have a special ability to connect with audiences and we loved feeling their passion. Speaking of passion, when you think of Mike Love, you think of one of the most passionate musicians in reggae music today. Mike’s set featuring his full Full Circle band was like a reggae shredding clinic. Mike’s guitar skills are absolutely legendary and his deep song catalog was so nicely showcased.

There are music artists; those with a vision and message for the sound they want to communicate to the world, and there are musicians; those who are experts in the theory and technical knowledge of creating and performing music. Then there are those like Clinton Fearon, who is the talented embodiment of both. Fearon is a legend of reggae music who began his prolific career in the late 60s, first as a member of The Gladiators, and eventually transitioning to performing and releasing music as a solo artist. He also has been brought in on countless records as a session musician, becoming known as one of the best bass players in the genre. For his newest album "Breaking News", released on June 3rd, 2022, Clinton traveled to France to record and work with a group of talented musicians to create a record that he deems as one of, if not his best.

Guiding Star’s message to follow love as your guide is crucial, especially in times of violence.

For their second single release leading up to a collaborative new EP, Mike Love and Rising Tide have teamed up with reggae legend Clinton Fearon to create a wonderful new track titled Medicine Man. With their combined musical talent in full flex, these skilled musicians were able to combine horns, harmonies, complex chord structures, and inventive arrangements in a way that still allows the song to vibe as if it was simpler and more minimal. Such a feat is no easy task, but for these three artists it seems to have been done with ease.
