Conceived on the sandy shores of California, Soul Majestic channels their sunny beach days and bonfire nights into their unique style of reggae music. Look beyond their laid back vibe, and you’ll find they are ever pushing the boundaries of the genre with an edge that cuts through the smoky haze. Their music blends a deep commitment to roots reggae with a love of hip-hop, R&B, rock, pop and folk music. It’s reggae, but original–a new twist on familiar sounds–with conscious, heartfelt, and socially relevant yet timeless messages. Their signature vocal sound features male and female singers trading melodies and soaring harmonies, laced with edgy, crowd hyping dancehall verses and memorable hooks. Epic lead guitar solos wail over a wide range of tight danceable beats, rock flourishes, and heavy-dub interludes that will captivate and move you to dance.
With a resume that includes recording with some of the greatest legends in the business (such as Sly and Robbie), sharing festival stages with the likes of Rebelution, Matisyahu, Sean Paul, and Damian Marley, and extensive touring of North America both headlining and as a support act for Jamaican dancehall artist Anthony B, Soul Majestic has managed to amass a worldwide fan base. They have journeyed together through many adventures and growth opportunities in their career, from a pilgrimage to Jamaica to record their second album “Until that Day” at Bob Marley’s Tuff Gong Studio, to touring Canada in support of their third album, “Better World” (which received an award for Galaxy Radio Canada’s top 10 international reggae albums of the year). Through it all they have maintained a strong unity and drive to continue to do what they love most: uplifting people through music.
In 2014, a successful crowd funding campaign fueled the recording of their fourth album “Setting the Tone” (which landed on the iTunes top reggae charts and was submitted by industry insiders for the 2015 GRAMMY Reggae Album of the Year), and led to the construction of their own studio and production lab. Following a 2015-2016 tour schedule that included Lucidity Festival, Santa Barbara Earthday, and the California Roots Festival, Soul Majestic released a compilation album online called “Pass It Around” which reached #7 on iTunes top reggae downloads and was selected as one of iTunes Best Reggae Albums for 2016. To promote it they released singles “Rockaway”, “Deep Green,” “Dub it Out” and “Falling in Love”, which debuted live at the 2016 California Roots Festival. The band was also featured as the cover story for Irie Magazine in the Fall of 2016. 2017 saw them on tour, beginning at the Santa Barbara Bowl, winding through the Fiji Islands Spirit Tour, and concluding with the West Coast Better Together Fall Tour alongside Australian reggae artist, Saritah.
Their 6th album, “Keep it Burning,” drops July 24th, 2020 on all platforms. An acoustic version of the title track debuted live on FB the night of the 2016 presidential election, raising the spirits of over 100K viewers with its messages of unity, resistance and perseverance. Ever pushing forward, Soul Majestic has arrived at their highest peak of songwriting and musical creation yet.
