The Reggae Connection: SOJA's Timeless Sound
SOJA, short for Soldiers of Jah Army, is a two-time Grammy Award-nominated band known for their deep-rooted passion for creating music that not only entertains but also inspires. Their journey began over 20 years ago, and since then, they have cultivated a sound that resonates with fans from all walks of life.
Their latest album, "Beauty in the Silence," marks their return after a four-year hiatus. This record, a testament to their enduring spirit, features collaborations with reggae luminaries like UB40, Slightly Stoopid, Stick Figure, and Rebelution. It's a celebration of reggae's communal spirit, bringing together artists from different corners of the genre to create something truly magical.
The album's title, "Beauty in the Silence," draws inspiration from Max Ehrmann's cherished poem, "Desiderata," with its opening lines reminding us to "Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence." SOJA frontman Jacob Hemphill reflects on the poem's significance, "To me, it's a reminder of what we lose when we get caught up in the distractions all around us. Life doesn't have to be all go, go, go. The real key to life is in being still."
