Reggae legend Clinton Fearon has just released a new song that is perfectly suited for the times we find ourselves in. The track is called “Sleepwalking,” and it very pointedly asks if we are ‘sleepwalking’ away from democracy, integrity, and humanity.
The official music video, which was also shared on the same day as the song (March 7th), shows people walking like robots while staring at their phones. Because Fearon is based in Seattle, one can only assume that this record was inspired, at least in part, by recent changes being made by the U.S. government and the impact those changes are having on the country.
Musically, “Sleepwalking” is a sonorous reggae record with deep bass and beautiful woodwind and brass instruments. It was written and composed by Clinton Fearon with contributions by several musicians. Click here or on the image above to check out the video, and remember to like, comment, and share.
