Milele Roots

11/14/2009 9:00 PM at JJ’s Bohemia - Fringe Benefit with Mirabai Bellydance
231 E M.L.K. Blvd, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37403
Cost:

A benefit on November 14th for the Chattanooga Room in the Inn, which helps victims of violence and women in crisis. "Milele Roots have expanded their sound beyond roots reggae to a mix that comfortably embraces muted Miles-ish trumpet, Perry’s pan fired dub, soulful vocals, and a guitarist who adds a rock flavor without overpowering the groove. The band is grounded by a very tight rhythm section featuring a fine keyboard player giving their music a reliably melodic and sensual foundation. Marley established the mode, Milele are building on it, making their own roots rock reggae for the 21st century." (Richard Winham - WUTC-FM NPR).
