Scholar's Word
Scholars Word take everything good about reggae and weave it together in a new way on Perseverance, staying true to the roots of the music without sounding clich� or imitative. Their steady, pumping bass lines and energetic rhythms combine with a well-proportioned mix of guitar melodies, saxophone jams, and upbeat keyboard effects to produce a completely genuine and electrifying reggae sound. Pair that with lead singer Bryce Creighton�s clear, soothing voice, which captivates on tracks like �Good Feelin� and Searchin,� and you�ve got yourself an album that sounds remarkable from start to finish. And, as if all that weren�t enough, the lyrics of each song provide enlightened social commentary and life lessons that will make you think about the kind of positive impact you can make on the people around you.
Scholars Word are the real deal, and with songs like �Can�t Turn It Off� and �Perseverance Dub,� which have the uncanny ability to instantly put you in a good mood, their ninth album Perseverance demonstrates that they have every aspect of truly modern reggae on lock.
