Preview: Bigface Reggae

September 18, 2011 Off By Jon

Bigface Reggae could quite possibly provide the soundtrack to the Dorset summer of 2011 with appearances at all the local festivals Endorse It In Dorset, Dorset Great Steam Fair, Grooves on The Green and Wind Fest. The band are fronted by the two of the most talented front men Si Genaro and Si Crocket who together with their band give just one of the most uplifting live performances their totally original style is just something that could not be compared to anything that has been before.

This is apparent on the bands 10 track live album that shows the band is full flow recorded recently at a local live show, it gives a great insight to the excellent song writing within the band and shows the fun and energy of their live show, as well as their excellent self written material there are a couple of well chosen covers just for good measure including a killer version of “Ain’t No Sunshine”.
