Candle Burning
Groundation have been active for 25 years and are one of the top international roots reggae acts with a huge fan base in the USA, Brazil and Europe in particular. Three years after ‘One Rock’, the next studio album ‘Candle Burning’ is finally being released with the usual high-class blend of modern 70s reggae and excursions into jazz and fusion realms. Complex arrangements, moving melodies and lyrics that always question the state of humanity in an astute and solidary way are their trademarks.
Since their early days, the Californians have been able to inspire role models, pioneers and friends to collaborate with them, this time presenting Mykal Rose, Alpha Blondy, Mutabaruka and Thomas Mapfumo as guest vocalists. Recorded on analogue tape in ten days at the legendary ICP Studio Brussels, ‘Candle Burning’ is the next masterpiece from the popular band with the unmistakably epic-cinematic sound, the brightly vibrating lead voice of Harrison Stafford - a sound that only Groundation can offer, refined with first-class brass sections and soulful backing vocals, lyrically full of wide-awake and critical statements with a hopeful outlook.
