by Resonators

Mr Crumbone The blend of those vocals is heaven... It's the real thing, but with a modern touch... One of the best live reggae bands I've heard/seen over the last couple of years... Favorite track: Right Time.

Joe Rapley Here we go again!
The Resonators continue to rock it right. I’ve been following these guys for a while and they continue to impress with wonderfully crafted music.
See them live if you get the chance just don’t forget to take your skanking shoes. Favorite track: Imaginary People.

Sam Tweaks Superb album full of perfect songs in a dub reggae vein. You can't help but sway gently to the vibe as the songs play out. Favorite track: Healer.

Nemo Halperin Another excellent Resonators album! It makes you wonder how it's possible to create such lovely tunes so consistently but... they do, they do, they do! Favorite track: Papa Daddio.

Bwa Un bon son reggae à écouter en fin de journée.

4rkz Absolutely fantastic. Love your music . Stunning. Your all amazing but the horn section! Can’t think how much hard work and feeling has gone into this.

about

Wah Wah 45s are proud to present the hugely anticipated new album from arguably the UK's finest dub and reggae outfit, Resonators.

After a four year hiatus - mostly spent tirelessly performing headline shows and festivals across the UK and Europe, as well as recording a plethora of new music - this almost peerless Brighton-based collective are ready to unleash their new material to an eager public in the shape of their third album, "Imaginary People".

Inspired by the meditative quality and universal appeal of Jamaican roots music the bandradiate a playful and unified stage presence. The two lead singers Kassia Zermon and FayeHouston wipe away the notion of the big-ego front man whilst Darren JamTone provides livedub effects, and the balance is set.

This fine balance is also apparent on the album where sonorous dub moments on tracks like "Come Through" and "Trees" are perfectly complemented by sweeter cuts like "Right Time" and "Swing Easy". As ever with Resonators though, it's the song writing that stands out, and album highlights "Papa Daddio" and the psychedelic "Healer" showcase this perfectly.

With a plethora of new songs under their belt, as well as what's becoming a very healthy catalogue of crowd pleasers from their last two albums, Resonators will be touring the UK and Europe this Autumn. Make sure you catch them as they're one of the finest live acts in this country right now!
