Digging Roots
With the 2006 release of their debut album 'seeds', Jericho Beach Music recording artists DiggingRoots, are quickly emerging as new leaders of the old school of rebel music. From the first listen, the songs about culture, freedom, and identity are undeniably hard-hitting, hopeful and honest.
The songwriting team combine the elements of their traditional Indigenous influences, hip-hop, folk, reggae, blues, and roots with an uncommon eclectic sensibility. Kish and Kanatakta bring us lyrics that take no prisoners and embrace the art of possible. These are stories from the end of the road.
"Don't let the cool sound fool you; this is inspiring stuff. If you don't listen to the words, you may miss the point. The cool vocals on some cuts create a tension with the lyrics that is rare in contemporary music. While the sound ranges through blues, spiritual, jazz, soul, rap or talking blues, and reggae, it's protest all the way."
~ Linda Lord, Metis Voyageur, April 2006
