In support of their second full-length album, “Get Wiser”, SOJA is
embarking on a journey around the world. Their pure roots reggae will
pulse within Hawaii, California, Oregon, Guam and all over the east
coast for the next few months, spreading “equal parts (of) blazing fire
and healing water, full of locked in riddims and quietly powerful
vocals” (The Beat, Feb 05). Not only will you find them in your
favorite local club – SOJA’s playing the big summer festivals as well –
check them out at Reggae on the River & the All Good Festival!
