Vineyard Town Overview
The Vineyard Town Riddim is a roots reggae collection that brought together some of the genre’s respected artists in 2009. Capleton, known for his powerful stage presence and his hit song “Tour,” adds his unique style to “All Is Well.” Luciano, who once reached the UK Albums Chart with his album “Messenger,” delivers a thoughtful message on “Be Aware.” Peetah Heritage, a member of the Grammy-winning group Morgan Heritage, performs “Jesse James.” Fantan Mojah, recognized for his conscious lyrics, sings “More Blessing From The Herb.” Lukie D, famous for his smooth voice, appears with “Crying Out.” The riddim’s dub cut was crafted by Maximum Sounds, a well-known production team led by Frenchie. Maximum Sounds has worked with many top reggae and dancehall artists since the 1990s and is respected for their strong catalog of riddims. Their productions have been featured on labels like Greensleeves and have gained many streams worldwide. In 2009, this roots anthology was played in cultural reggae sessions across Jamaica and beyond. The Vineyard Town Riddim stands out for its meditative flow and quality musicianship. Each artist brings their own energy, making this collection a favorite for fans of modern roots reggae. The work of Maximum Sounds on this project shows their lasting impact on the reggae scene.
