New Common Ground (Reggae)

Four of the hardest working musicians in the KC music scene have
stirred in the heartbeat, skank & bubble of reggae with tasty,
soulful R&B vocals, & blended their various musical influences,
including funk, country, zydeco & rock, to create their own
flavor of rootsy reggae in an exciting new reggae band called
New Common Ground. Reggae veteran, Edward “Eddie” Turner
has nearly three decades of experience playing keyboards &
singing with some of the best local reggae bands, & working with & backing many top international reggae artists. Guitarist
Rick “Pretty Ricky” Cole, and bassist, Richard “Richmo” Faught,
have recorded with a well-known regional reggae artist. They,
along with drummer, Blaine “B Dub” Smith, have honed their
reggae chops during the last decade playing with most of the
up & coming local reggae bands. The combination of their
collective talents, infectious positive energy on stage & eclectic,
experimental arrangements of reggae tunes & songs from other
genres makes this band refreshingly unique.
