Capital Letters’ Lukas Daley followed up with his call to peace No War before surprise guest and veteran singer Mike Brooks dropped two tracks in a revive style. Straight after, Anthony Johnson came and tore down the place, with nuff rub a dub styles, inna orginal fashion.

Earl Sixteen closed the show with some classics from Studio One’s Love Is A Feeling to the roots Malcom X, all the way to his brand new up to the minute track by Indica Dubs – all rendered by the Friendly Fire Band in fine style.

]]> New Release: Tomlin Mystic : Live As One https://friendlyfiremusic.com/tomlin-mystic-live-as-one-out-now/ Thu, 11 Jun 2015 11:04:36 +0000 http://www.friendlyfiremusic.com/?p=2428 Out today, Tomlin Mystic and Friendly Fire Band’s Live as One is a unity manifesto in  post-election UK, bringing back the original foundation roots style of the 70s and early 80s. The riddim is played entirely live by the Friendly Fire Band and mixed by Robidon, and Tomlin Mystics lamenting voice points out the similarities of our current government  with the slave masters of the past. The message is clear, despite the efforts of the powers that be to divide and conquer the people, the only way out of these difficult times is to Live As One.

As one of the favourite tunes that Friendly fire Band and Tomlin Mystic play on stage, it is finally out to download for free for a limited period, so get downloading and sharing!
