Homegrown Reggae band Black Uhuru, has been through several changes in their lineup across the group's four decades plus existence.
Originating from the grottos of Waterhouse in 1978, the band founded by Duckie Simpson rose to the pinnacle of global stardom working alongside the incomparable production duo of Sly and Robbie.
Now in the new Millenium, the band continues to move to their own beat, and their recent album "New Day" features Cali reggae rocker Dylans Dharma, and the group's "new" lead singer Andrew Bees(Black Uhuru's frontman since 1996).
Produced by Grammy-nominated producer King Hopeton who delivered the group's 2018 Grammy-nominated album "As The World Turns" these partners in musical creativity have once again collaborated to produce a remarkable 11 track body of work.
Notable tracks on the project include the opening track "Jamaica to Here", "Brand New Day", "Top Ranking", and "Gal Next Door", which is an unexpected but refreshing reprise of Dennis Brown's 1978 classic hit " Man Next Door".
All in all, the album "New Day" is worth a listen and place in the collection of discerning Reggae fans of the group.
And just a note for vinyl fans.
The production distributed by U.S based LAW records is available in Teal coloured vinyl which ships in June.
