Today our Bottle Rock Napa Featured Artist is Matisyahu. Matisyahu brings a fresh new life to the music scene and has been inspiring people for the past decade with his reggae hip hop style and alternative music. His energy is infectious and when he sings you can’t help but feel lighter as your troubles lift away. Matisyahu has a very unique story of his upbringing and how he became to be known as “The hasidic reggae superstar”. His story, just like his music takes you into such depths with his songs and a journey. His music has evolved over the years, just as his spirituality. Listening to him, can create the perfect blissful mood.
Matisyahu currently has his new album, AKEDA which is set to release on June 4th. Akeda is said to be his most personal album and one which he had the most creative control over. As Matisyahu says, “Akeda is the kind of album an artist makes when there is no other creative choice but to turn oneself inside-‐out, to scrape the insides and reveal everything raw” . The album can be pre-ordered on Itunes here. We look forward to hearing some of his new songs at this year’s Bottle Rock Napa Festival.
