With the recently released daily […]
For reggae rock lovers in San Diego, June 13th was a BIG day — and it started for many of us before we even made it through the gates. A bunch of Stoopidheads met up at Bub’s at the Ballpark before Field of Dreamz — a massive reggae rock festival taking place at Petco Park, […]
Nine studio albums is an incredible feat for any band. Add immense talent to the track record and it’s a wonder why Tropidelic isn’t more of a mainstream name by now. Of course, any band that takes the ‘reggae’ route in America is, somewhat discriminately, kept from the radio waves and spotlight nine times out […]

The world is overrun by information; it’s coming in on all sides. The television, the Internet, social media, and podcasts — we’re bombarded by news. The problem is, it’s getting harder and harder to recognize what’s opinion and what’s fact. Biases and beliefs don’t add up to truths. And Miami-based reggae band Jacuzzi Fuzz knows […]
On Friday, May 22nd, the 15th year of the famed California Roots Music & Arts Festival kicked off Day One like none other.

There is something to be said about a Wednesday night, when you walk into a venue early and the energy is already abundant. Not building throughout the night; it’s there from the start. That was how it went down in St. Louis at the Old Rock House on April 29th, one of the final tour […]
You could feel it in the air: it was that perfect, sun-kissed October day, one that wasn’t too hot, but just right. Day Two of Mission Bayfest 2025 in Mariner’s Point Park in the Mission Bay area of San Diego wasn’t just another day of music following a highly successful Day One; it was an […]
Fall is in the air as we celebrate the warmth in our hearts. The changing of the season makes us grasp onto those last warm summer breezes every year… and there’s one band we must mention that is always full of summer vibes year-round. Rocking the Cali reggae scene and repping peace, love, and unity […]
When Aurorawave dropped their debut album last year, visionary frontman Nathan Aurora set out to create a space where sun-soaked reggae rhythms could successfully throw down in a pit with the gritty heaviness of rock and the flexing muscle of metal. In the band’s second effort, titled Monument and released August 15th through Ineffable Records, […]

The weekend started off on Thursday, August 14th with a pre-show party hosted by Miles the DJ from […]
On Sunday, August 10th in Costa Mesa, the Pacific Amphitheatre pulsed with the heartbeat of modern roots reggae. As part of the Orange County Fair’s 2025 Summer Concert Series, Tribal Seeds headlined a stacked lineup that felt less like a concert and more like a spiritual gathering of California’s reggae faithful. The Simpkin Project kicked […]
Iration might’ve headlined the night, but the whole lineup was a vibe from start to finish. Not a single dud in the mix, with each act bringing their own flavor — it was one smooth wave of energy! And being at Gallagher Square in Petco Park didn’t make it your average Sunday Funday reggae sesh; […]
