A Miracle, the exciting new 8th album from Groundation, the West Coast's most accomplished reggae band, abounds with unique modal flourishes that reveal the jazz training of its founding members, taking the music to new heights of invention. Filled with anthemic tracks like “Hold Your Head Up” and “Liberation Call,” plus the group's first love song, “Cupid's Arrow,” Groundation revels in the unexpected. “Our sound is meant to challenge our listeners spiritually, socially and musically to think outside the box. We're also thrilled to have Judy Mowatt and Marcia Griffiths on this project from Bob Marley's I-Threes harmony trio.” says group leader Harrison Stafford. This is 21st century music meant to inspire and educate, Jah Music to elevate the mind and move the body. - Roger Steffens
