"Even the most knowledgeable and die-hard reggae fanatics have taken notice to Revelation's authenticity. Though the quartet hails from Atlanta, Georgia, their hearts reside in Kingston, Jamaica. And it goes much deeper than just the music. Book 1 is a timeless sound that refuses any momentary trends"
-Andy Stokes, Augusta Metro Spirit.
"Is this beautiful or what? Who said original roots music was dying?" -BasTafari Judah, Easy Skanking Roots Reggae Radio, Holland.
"Caleb Ford rides over roots and rockers riddims (with a touch of blues and R&B) in a righteous manner sure to inspire some herbal meditation! This is the band that's just about to be discovered by the masses." -DJ Bahilman, Creation Steppin Radio.
Revelation, based out of Atlanta via Detroit, brings Reggae to the next level. Founding members Caleb Ford (guitar and vocals) and Damien Lewis (drums and production) grew up on the cool sounds of 'Motown' and the Jamaican mirror 'Studio One'. They join a deep love and passion for roots reggae with years spent on the road playing every blues joint in the USA and several other countries. Revelation plays powerful roots reggae for a live show that is authentic and spiritually uplifting.
