The new album 'Slow-Burning' finds this eight-piece outfit continuing to mine their reggae influences, although with considerable new-found confidence and originality. The Marley influences are obviously still there (I mean how could a reggae band not be influenced by the great man?) but are now less pronounced as the band, and particularly principle songwriters Logan Bell, Jordan Bell and Jamey Ferguson, find their own songwriting footing (all songs on this album are written by the band). The blend of "pop" and reggae is now almost seamless, while the use of horns and harmonica on tracks such as "Roots Music", "I And I", "Frisk Me Down" and "Call Right Up" add real colour and swing to proceedings, resulting in an album that is overall more cohesive and infinitely tighter sonically.
