Biography

Anyone doubting Reggae music's enduring relevance or its power to transform hearts and minds should listen to this latest track by ShakaRoot, since it has a message that's impossible to ignore. "We're taking anything we need, to change the world indeed" he warns - not in anger, but with love and certainty amidst regal horns and proper arrangements, and aided by a chorus that'll stay in the brain long after the song's stopped playing. Lyrically, it's a declaration of intent - a hymn to both music and a better world, and delivered by a singer / songwriter from Sardinia now living in Brighton, UK, whose music evokes the majesty and deep roots vibe of traditional reggae, whilst simultaneously sounding a clarion call for his generation. Words by John Masouri (Echoes, Riddim, The Reggae Chronicles, Steppin’ Razor: The Life Of Peter Tosh)
