We are living in serious times! In 2024 a minimum of 64 countries – plus the European Union – will be holding national elections, and contending with all the unpleasantness that goes along with campaigning and choosing leadership. Additionally, people all over the world are struggling with inflation, wars, and everything that goes along with both. It is with this backdrop that reggae lovers are receiving Richie Spice‘s new tune, Come Dance The Night Away.
Throughout his career Richie Spice has always been able to take the temperature of the room and create the right song for the moment. To our benefit, he has done so again. On a steady reggae rhythm the Rasta man invites you the listener to “Come Dance The Night Away and live your life today.” In his distinctive singing style he goes on to say that everyone deserves to be happy and have a good time.
As he’s done in the past, executive producer Josh Harris called on Nikki Burt for harmonies, Jallanzo for guitar, and Santa Davis for drums, while he added the bass, keyboard, and samples. Mixing and mastering engineers were Tommi Tikkenen and Earle Holder.
Come Dance The Night Away is out now, and can be streamed and/or downloaded from all major music platforms. It’s on the Big Feet Records label.
