"Reggae Music
with an International Flavor"
A successful Caribbean reggae band, MEMORY OF JUSTICE, has opened
for such big names as Third World, Steel Pulse, Chaka Khan, Richie
Stevens, Marcia Griffiths, Bryon Lee and the Dragonnaires.
The band has worked with Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespare who produced
their first Number One hit "Me and Ma Crew". The song
stayed at Number One on the Jamaican charts for 10 consecutive weeks
and went on to be nominated for Song of the Year.
The MEMORY OF JUSTICE band has recorded and release five albums,
all of which were released on the band's own independent label,
Platinum Express Records. In fact, the band's CD "Songs from
the Crib" has spured them on to release the single "Jamming
in the Park", which is enjoying frequent airplay in Jamaica
and other Caribbean islands.
After listening to UB40's "Labor of Love" CD, the band
got hooked up with the producers from the Elephant House Sound Laboratory
in Birmingham, England to produce MOl's latest CD entitled "Life".
Thirty years of polishing musical skills, and the band has been
left with one insatiable thirst for an international audience and
the big times they're ready for the millennium!
What makes this band from the Cayman Islands so unique?
The smoky richness of lead singer, Lambert Seymour's voice is
undeniable. He sings with a soulfulness that is reminiscent of such
greats as Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson and Otis Redding.
Their music, described by the band as "reggae fusion"
is a melting pot of varied styles, set against a backdrop as diverse
as ska and Mowtown. Terms like pop reggae and new wave reggae have
been in reviews of the band's music. While driving syncopated bassline
dominate their dance songs, smooth silky riffs and the laid-back
style of the tropics are paramount in their folksy island ballads.
