This episode we have Ted Bowne of PASSAFIRE on to talk about their new album Strata and producing H.R. of Bad Brains unreleased album. H.R. has been an influential force in music since the late 70’s and it’s exciting to see how his style bodes with another generation of reggae rock, this time under the production of Ted. We talk about the writing process that goes into a PASSAFIRE song, his studio Passafarm,how the pandemic has effected him and much more. Since forming in 2003, Passafire has released a total of six studio albums and boasts credits like producing with Paul Leary (Sublime, Pepper, U2, Slightly Stoopid), #1 albums on both the Billboard and iTunes Reggae charts, and sharing stages with rock-reggae OGs 311 and Pepper, and legends Toots & the Maytals, the Wailers, and John Brown’s Body, who in the band’s early years, inspired them to explore reggae with a gritty edge.
