Clinton Fearon Teases "Havana Meets Kingston Part 2" with "The Human Chain."
<p>The <em>Havana Meets Kingston</em> project, which debuted in 2017, brings together the musical cultures of two Caribbean powerhouses separated by a few miles of ocean and a yawning gap of language and colonial history. But man, can these musicians speak to each other! Their intermarriage of deep reggae grooves with intricate Cuban rhythms and vocal harmonies finds a whole new set of variations on the project's second album, <em>Havana Meets Kingston Part 2</em>, to be released on June 3, 2022.<br></p>
<p> In the meantime, here's a taste, a roots reggae anthem with none other than Sly and the late Robbie Shakespeare as the rhythm section, and Clinton Fearon of the legendary Gladiators band singing about "The Human Chain." </p>
