When you hear roots reggae, you instantly connect with an irie bass line, the lyrics standing up for people’s rights, and the sound of peace and love. Roots reggae remains strong in 2023 and we fell in love with some of these new LPs.

Daily Reggae spoke with Mellow Mood’s Lorenzo Garzia to dive into the reggae superstar’s approach to writing new music, Mellow Mood’s excellent new album, “Mañana”, and the balance of creating music and performing live shows.

Italy’s Mellow Mood is one of the most talented duos in the global reggae scene and the musician’s new album, “Mañana” is an important reminder to celebrate today and what’s to come tomorrow. “Mañana” is Mellow Mood’s sixth studio album and is another impressive milestone in Jacob and L.O. Garzia’s amazing reggae music catalog.

Mellow Mood and Konshens turn up the heat in their new single, “My Bed”. The single has an incredible reggae and dancehall riddim and Mellow Mood and Konshens’ vocals are so relaxing. “My Bed” is Mellow Mood’s latest single dropping ahead of their upcoming album. We cannot wait to listen to the full album, which will surely bring so many good vibes!

The eleventh track on Demarco’s new album, Melody, is titled Dance My Stress Away and the title of the song featuring Stephen Marley perfectly captures how this album makes us feel. Melody is an incredible reggae and dancehall album featuring heavy hitters like Sean Paul, Collie Buddz, Stephen Marley, and Shaggy.
