Over the last two years, David Rodigan and The Outlook Orchestra have come together to raise the bar in reggae music in Britain. Testament to this fact is the selling out of the Royal Festival Hall, Somerset House and the Royal Albert Hall – each in under an hour.

That said, on Sunday, June 12th, Horace Andy, Freddie McGregor and Bitty McLean will join David Rodigan and The Outlook Orchestra at Kenwood House (Hampstead Heath) in London. Joining them for this exclusive evening will be Gentleman’s Dub Club, Channel One Sound System, Hollie Cook and Don Letts. Get tickets here.

In a few days from now, Linval Thompson, the man known and respected both as a vocalist and producer, will share Help Them Jah Jah. The new reggae tune – produced by Big Feet Records – goes live on all music platforms on Friday, June 10th. It will be accompanied by an official lyric video.

Everyone who have had the opportunity to review the record have all concluded that it is an important song, especially for the times we are living in. On the track Thompson cries out to the Most High on behalf of the indigent and destitute. This is done in a dulcet, melodic manner – something he’s known for.

Linval stands in front of an all-star cast of musicians: Josh Harris (bass and keyboard), Santa Davis (drums) and Jallanzo (guitar). Mixing and mastering engineers are Umberto Echo and Earle Holder respectively.
