Black Roots - Nothing In The Larder

With "Nothing In The Larder", Black Roots creates another original set of tracks and brings in some of
the best musicians based in the UK. Together they bring a new sound, despite the narrow confines of roots
reggae. The message is strong, coherent and relevant in today's world of pandemic inequality, racism and
discrimination. Uncertainty and global distrust reign due to the world's politicians, whose objective is to
reduce individual freedoms and to submit populations to their will. It is in this context that Black Roots
uses, as usual, roots reggae to get his message across. In "Enlightenment", the group calls us to see
beyond reality and to rise spiritually; the message is carried by beautiful layers of brass, which reinforces
this impression of escape.
Through the reggae melodies of "Nothing in the Larder", the band provides a timely reminder that we
must continue to promote equality, justice and open-mindedness.
