North Carolina-based rockers Of Good Nature have returned from their studio time at White Star Sound with legendary producer Danny Kalb (Beck, Ben Harper, Foster the People, The Movement) with a handful of polished singles. The first of which, “Take Me Anywhere,” is set to be released on February 23rd of this year.
The east coast reggae scene has been responsible for some of the most fusion-friendly bands, constantly pushing their music beyond the traditional “island” sound. Of Good Nature stays true to this tradition of innovation with “Take Me Anywhere”. Mixing elements of funk, soul, pop, rock, and jazz with twists of reggaeton and hip-hop has spawned a truly unique and approachable sound, bound to push the band to a mainstream market.
The band has garnered quite the reputation, impressing fans with back-to-back appearances aboard Train’s Sail Across The Sun Cruise, as well as opening for top-tier headliners Sublime with Rome, Slightly Stoopid, Dirty Heads, Keller Williams, Blues Traveler, Common Kings, Steel Pulse, Iration, Passafire, The Movement, Tribal Seeds, Ballyhoo! and more. They’ve also received recognition for their studio work, seeing their debut album, Just Add Water, won Indie-Ville’s Reggae Album of the Year.
“Take Me Anywhere” tells a story sure to resonate with anyone craving new experiences. The use of perspective switches from verse to chorus act as refreshing tool to tell a well-rounded story with themes of wanting to escape from feeling stuck and calling out for help. Melodic horn lines, precise technically-exquisite drumming, and a vocal style reminiscent to the warmth of turn-of-the-century alternative combine to create an authentic style, all their own.
Be on the lookout for the new single, dropping February 23rd, 2018.
