It shouldn’t be hard to imagine why the sensational dance-rhythm phenomenon with a delirious and bewildering backbeat known as reggae, would find itself in familiar territory nearly 180 degrees around the equator and instantly infect a pair of commonfolk siblings with its fever, to eventually form BROWNMAN REVIVAL.
Started in late 1994, the band re-captures the original groove and spirit of the reggae vibe, when reggae appealed more to the heart and the hips, infusing it further with pop undertones that strike a familiar chord with Filipino aural palates, not to mention their pelvic areas.
BROWNMAN REVIVAL is made up of the one-drop rocksteady beats of drummer Dennis, the sexy accents from percussionist Januarie, the wicked horn riffs of Pawlo on trumpet, Ian on alto sax, PJ on tenor sax, the grooves of Dawn on bass, the wicked bubbling of Randy on keyboards, the steady skanking rhythms of Nhoel on guitars, capped-off by the soulful croon of Benjah on vocals.
Drawing heavily on contemporary reggae acts such as Big Mountain, Aswad, Inner Circle and UB40, BROWNMAN REVIVAL creatively mixes the traditional roots sound of reggae with OPM pop sensibilities, producing a festive but sensuous strain of Lover’s Rock reggae, with such vibrant energy that never fails to leave crowds winding and grinding their sweaty bodies to the band’s euphoric reggae party.
