A Miracle

Since the dawn of recorded sound, music can be seen as a giant tapestry to which all musicians lend their creative influence. One band focused on the explosive evolution of this musical ecosystem is Groundation. Rooted in the reggae one-drop sound of Jamaica, Groundation seamlessly incorporates the harmonic, polyrhythmic, and improvisational elements of jazz, breathing new life into both genres. Groundation's 8th full-length studio album evokes the lasting and eternal influence of Bob Marley, as A Miracle features both Marcia Griffiths and Judy Mowatt, founding members of Marley's legendary backing vocal trio the I-Threes. The picture is completed by the pen of Neville Garrick, Marley's art director from the time of the Rastaman Vibration album (1976). A Miracle takes the listener on a journey through the creation of life, the power of the Empress, and the balance of men and women.
