Capital Letters
Wolverhampton
Having reformed in 2013, it hasn't taken Capital Letters long to get back into their stride and 2015 sees them releasing a new album and embarking on a series of European live dates . The band have spent much of the summer in the studio of Noel Browne (Studio One Band, Taxi Gang and Maytals) to record 14 new songs. The album kicks off with a trio of classic roots tracks, "Jah Music", a highlight of their live shows, recent single "Wolf" and "Roots Music" before turning to some hard-hitting roots messages. But it's not all politics and preaching. One of the songs is a heartfelt tribute to the band's home town, Wolverhampton in the British Midlands. And Co-vocalist Lukas doesn't forget his past as a Lovers Rock artist and we are treated to a solitary love song with "Movie Star". Capital letters are a band at the top of their game; they have maturity, confidence and musicianship to spare. The more you listen to this album, the more it reveals the depth of quality within.
