Artist Spotlight: Through The Roots

Wrapping up the week and cruising into the weekend with a brand new edition of Artist Spotlight! Today, we stay on the West Coast and head on over to beautiful San Diego, CA where we come into contact with the positive minded sounds of Through The Roots. The band consists of Evan Hawkins on lead vocals and guitar, Ross Garcia on bass, Brady O'Rear on keys, Taylor Boatwright on drums, and Chris Cruz on guitar and keys. Their music is a mystifying and captivating blend of reggae influenced rock mixed in with the spirit of Bob Marley with a uplifting and positive message embedded within the music that any like minded individual can take to heart with them. I really appreciated the message embedded within the lyrics that drew me to the guys in the first place, and made me drawn to their infectious aura that emanates so strongly when you first listen to them. A terrific unsung act that is definitely worthy of some love here on the site. Some recommended tracks for you to take a listen at include "Best Friend" and "Stay Positive".

For more information on the guys in Through The Roots, head on over to their Facebook page located here and see what all the buzz is about. They're also active on Twitter, and you can follow them from this location here and stay in touch with the guys on a direct basis. Visit their official website here for more in depth information concerning the gentlemen, and check out their latest remix EP "Zombies", now available for download on iTunes at this link right over here.
