Pucko Music, the best selling new Reggae album

NEW YORK (www.akirapress.com) - PUCKO MUSIC is a moment in time, a session, a recording and a performance, with the RuffCutt Band. With Anthony "Dashi" Thomas, as the Griot, Kenton "Fish" Brown as the Dub Master, Carlton "Bubblers" Oglivie as the Musical Professor, Tony "Crucial" Phillips as the Vibes Master and FAADA as the Poet.

Influenced by popular Reggae and Dancehall anthems, PUCKO MUSIC seeks to interpret the music of poetry, through the potent sounds of Reggae Music. The lyrics are taken from FAADA's Collection of Poetry, Deadly Ending Season (Akira Press 1984) and Pucko Poetry (Akira Press 2004).
They are performed with a voice amplified with the guttural sounds of the Griots, "speaking from a standpoint of age 'perience", focusing on history, contemporary platitudes that marginalized a people, echoing the call for "betterment, peace and love", warning of the danger if a "tradition slip into oblivion", joining the chorus of voices chanting down Babylon, seeing hope and fortitude, in a world of Experiences.
