ED ROME - A LIFE IN MINUTES
The much anticipated Ed Rome debut album 'A Life In Minutes' (Rockers Revolt) is available NOW from the Rockers Revolt webshop at
www.rockersrevolt.com/products-page/genre/ed-rome---a-life-in-minutes/
It will also be in all good record shops on 27 October'08 and on every date of his upcoming tour with Easy Star All-stars.
Overview
Take proper old school dirty Reggae inspired by King Tubby & Studio One and mix it with classic British song writing from the school of Billy Bragg and Ian Dury and you’ve got something truly unique. Multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Ed Rome has been plying his trade over the years with countless live sessions for the likes of Lee Perry, The Beat and members of The Specials. His song writing has enabled Ska Band ‘The Big’ to become a key feature on the underground Ska/Reggae scene, taking him all over the world.
Now Ed Rome is venturing out on his own with a superb debut album, ‘A Life In Minutes’. This soon to be ‘classic’ is crammed with heavyweight rhythms, dirty organ, innovative guitar, Jamaican horns all topped with Ed’s unique growling vocals and everyday tales.
Ed is on tour with NYC creators of Dub Side of the Moon, the Easy Star All-stars from 18 October-01 November 2008.
