Since their formation
in 1999, Resination has grown exponentially from a powerhouse
quartet, into a nine piece Roots, Rock, Reggae machine that
is taking the reggae community by storm. Emitting eclectic sounds
of jazz, soul, reggae, funk, and blues, it is no wonder why
Resination makes any crowd demographic stop and dance in their
spot. On top of the colorful modern roots reggae rhythms that
the players of instrument showcase, lead vocalist Vance Fahie
takes the crowd on an unforgettable journey of positive energy
and conscious messages.
The initial groundwork
was laid by lead singer Vance Fahie (AKA "Noche Man"),
bassist Ian Hartman, and lead guitarist/backing vocalist Patrick
Pearson. The past few years has seen the addition of a horn
section comprise of Patrick “Rojo” Reynolds on trumpet,
and Tony Aimone on trombone. Thomas “Toes” Cuffe,
provides the essential keyboard rhythms and Mike "Mikey
J" Jimenez excels on rhythm guitar. The soulful Empress,
Raeme Miner, lends her voice to complete Resination's three
part harmonies and takes the lead on a handful of tracks. "Tuff"
Tim Cordero lives up to his name and holds down the steady roots
rhythm on drums
Resination’s
third album, entitled Conscious Development, showcases Resination
branching out in new directions, all the while maintaining the
“Resination sound”. The new album is bound to take
California based reggae to new heights. Their first album, "Live
at SLO Brew", was recorded early on and shows the band
giving pure musical energy live and direct. Their first studio
album, entitled "Mash Down Babylon", was well received
throughout the reggae community, landing on Creation-Steppin
Radio’s Top 30 albums on 2003. The album covered all the
bases from roots anthems (ICU, Red Hot, Take a Look), roots-rock
tracks (Babylon Shock), and lover's reggae (Dance With Me).
Without
a doubt, a Resination show is always positive and uplifting,
captivating the masses and unifying the people who share the
love of not only the music, but also the message it sends!
