On May 17, the official video for Fire Burnin’, the debut single from Josh Harris‘ all-star band, The Spiral Mixers, premiered on YouTube. Consistent with the lyrics, the visuals, which were shot in both Jamaica and the United States, were captured on railway lines and trains. It was directed by the creative team at Big Feet Records, the label owned and operated by Harris.
Fire Burnin‘ is an inspirational reggae tune that encourages listeners to stay focus on what’s ahead, regardless of what they’ve gone through in the past. Though penned by Harris, the lead and harmony were sung by 60s breakout vocalist Glen Ricks, formerly of The Fabulous Flames.
Another musician that contributed to the one-drop reggae rhythm is Greg Douglass, one of the members of The Spiral Mixers. He played an outstanding guitar riff on top of Carlton “Santa” Davis‘ drumming. Bass and keyboards were done by Josh Harris, and it was mixed by Tommi Tikkenen and mastered by Earle Holder.
Fire Burnin’ is the lead single from The Spiral Mixers album, Crossing Bridges, that’s scheduled to be released on May 31st.
