Dukes of Roots are a 5-piece American roots reggae band who made their debut in 2022 with the Tarrus Riley-assisted “Pressure Drop”. The band is continuing to deliver some beautiful songs. Their most recent release, a beautiful rendition of “Money” by rock band Pink Floyd, is especially captivating.
“Money” is fresh and vibrant, infusing reggae rhythms and a laid-back vibe into the classic song. The lyrics are thought-provoking, questioning people’s excessive pursuit of money. I bet fans of roots reggae will enjoy the listening experience, and consider following the outfit on Instagram.
Dukes of Roots comprises Mermans Mosengo (vocals), George Fullwood (bass), Courtney Diedrick (drums), Stevie Verhault (lead guitar) and T Rod (guitar and lyrics).
