Description
Check out the all-original songs on reggae artist Ras Jammies third release. "Hooked", "Black Day", and "Anxiety Attack" are just a sampling of what this singer/songwriter can create.
Related to late jazz great Charlie Rouse, Ras Jammie continues in the avante garde mode with his own style of homegrown American reggae. His music draws heavily from traditional reggae to honor his Jamaican roots, yet is distinctly his own.
New strength is brought to Ras Jammie's band by guitarist John Marcus (aka Markiss), who has played with the likes of Buddy Guy, Miles Davis, Al Green, Muddy Waters, The Wailers, and Judy Mowatt. Returning band members include Los Angles reggae band Boomshaka founder Owen Rose on drums/percussion and Panamanian-born Monte-V (Lamonte Arthur) on keyboards. Local musicians Tony "Falcon" Davies on second guitar and Jamie Cerrito on bass complete the reggae vibe. The well-blended backup harmonies of Ras Jammie, Markiss, and Monte-V provide extra depth to the driving riddims.
With smooth Motown-like harmonies, insightful lyrics, and the powerful baritone voice of Ras Jammie, this music is a unique voice in reggae. Working out of the Rouse Your Spirits Recording Studio in Tucson, Arizona owned by Jammie, the RV Records label is quickly proving that reggae is no longer just an island phenomenon. Check it!
