The goal of Arise Roots is to create a fresh reggae sound with a
modern feel that appeals to all ages and races, but one that doesn’t
compromise the true feel of roots reggae. Anybody who has had the
opportunity to witness the band play a live show understands the
powerful sound and positive vibrations that they produce. Always paying homage
to past reggae legends, the album Moving Forward brings to mind the
influences of Black Uhuru, Dennis Brown, Bob Marley and The Wailers,
Israel Vibrations, Alton Ellis and Gregory Isaacs. From a broader view,
“Moving Forward” is an album for the people that creates consciousness
with a modern edge, yet grounded in traditional roots. (FULL STORY)
