SOJA – Poetry In Motion (CD)
Product Details
SOJA has spent two decades building one of the most devoted followings in American reggae, earned show by show from small clubs to festival main stages. The Arlington, Virginia eight-piece has always worn their D.C. roots proudly, threading the district's go-go and hardcore DNA into their sound in ways that set them apart from any easy genre label.
SOJA, the internationally acclaimed GRAMMY-nominated eight-piece from Washington D.C., will release its new album 'Poetry in Motion' on October 27th via ATO Records.
SOJA's core sound an uplifting meld of reggae, go-go, D.C. hardcore, Latin, rock, and hip-hop is as tight and compelling as it's ever been in the group's 20 year history, but now the group digs deeper on its message of finding peace and understanding in the world caught in tribulation. For the band, having fun and social awareness can, and should, co-exist.
Lead singer Jacob Hemphill explains, 'Poetry in Motion is about us, the human race. We're beautiful. We're the caretakers of this earth and everything that lives here, calls it home. But something is wrong. Something in us is lost. That's the focus - how to get back to the beauty and away from... well, this.'
