Pacific Roots
Based out of Santa Cruz, California, Pacific Roots is building their popularity by stirring the crowd in with their upbeat reggae jams thrown around with punk rock swells and solos, mixed melodiously to produce an original Cali based sound and vibe.
The group has toured the United States with Santa Cruz surf/punk/reggae legends The Expendables and Hermosa Beach skate/punk/reggae badasses Tomorrows Bad Seeds, and have shared the stage with many well known artists such as UB40, Steel Pulse, Tribal Seeds, Iya Terra, The Movement, Tunnel Vision, KBong, Badfish, Sly & Robbie, New Kingston, The Holdup, The Expanders, Black Uhuru, Through The Roots, Arise Roots, Josh Heinrichs, The Supervillains and more.
In addition to the 2017 release of their Self-Titled debut album, Pacific Roots released a second studio album in January of 2022 titled Still Standing.
"Local Santa Cruz vibe-masters Pacific Roots opened the show with a strong beat and soothing harmonies. Their rock-roots sound ranged from upbeat with a punk edge to a laid back bass driven groove, and early-comers to this show were treated to a fantastic set. 2019’s line up of this band holds extreme promise. If you like your Cali-style reggae with a bit more roots, this is certainly a band to watch in the coming months." -sfsonic.com
