Info for Country Goes Reggae

A group of renowned Jamaican musicians and engineers, dubbed Positive Vibrations, are injecting some Jamaican soul into country favorites on their new album, "Country Goes Reggae".

The idea for Country Goes Reggae came on a trip to Negril, Jamaica in 2019, when producers The Berman Brothers were sitting at sunset at a beach bar listening to Reggae classics as a car passed by blasting U.S. country songs. they knew the two worlds, with the blend of different styles and cultures, would work perfectly together.

The 11-track project recreates the musical arrangements behind beloved country hits, featuring Jimmie Allen, Randy Houser, Alexandra Kay, Toby Keith, Rascal Flatts, Landon Parker, Chase Rice, Uncle Kracker, Lainey Wilson, and Country Music Hall of Famers Alabama and Dolly Parton.

The upcoming project reimagines Parton’s “Two Doors Down,” Alabama’s “Pass It On Down,” Rascal Flatts’ “I Like The Sound of That,” Toby Keith’s “Red Solo Cup,” Uncle Kracker’s “Smile,” Randy Houser’s “Boots On,” Jimmie Allen’s “Make Me Want To,” and more.

The distance between Nashville and Jamaica is closer than it appears on a map. Bridging the gap between the hub of Country music and the Reggae nation is Positive Vibrations’ new album Country Goes Reggae that reimagines Country hits with classic and contemporary Reggae rhythms from some of the Caribbean island’s best tunesmiths.

The BMG release is the latest creative mashup from Christian and Frank Berman (The Berman Brothers) and partner Ron Oehl, and features the vocal talents of Country Music Hall of Famers Dolly Parton and Alabama, and Jimmie Allen, Toby Keith, Rascal Flatts, Chase Rice, Uncle Kracker and Lainey Wilson. The legendary Jamaican musicians – dubbed Positive Vibrations – include Ian “Beezy” Coleman (Ziggy and Damian Marley, Wyclef, Fugees), Devon Bradshaw (Burning Spear), Guillaume “Stepper Sax” Briard, Henry Matic Tune (UB40, Aswad, Dennis Brown).

The Berman Brothers, Ron Oehl and partner Kenny Young created a similar concept called Rhythms Del Mundo - Cuba, merging the original vocals of super stars like Coldplay, Sting, Maroon 5, and U2 with iconic Cuban musicians including Ibrahim Ferrer and Omara Portuondo from the Buena Vista Social Club. The album was No. 1 on iTunes and Amazon charts in more than 20 countries with Platinum and Gold sales in countries like Germany, Italy, Mexico, and more. Country Goes Reggae was mixed by GRAMMY-winning mixing engineer Chuck Ainlay and mastered by 12-time GRAMMY winner Bob Ludwig.
