Singer Intro

Album name：Chase The Sun

You've got to be pretty good to open for the pope. So it's no surprise that the Supertones, fresh off their January 1999 opening gig for the Papal One in front of 68,000 people in St. Louis, have a release worthy of any audience. Chase the Sun, the band's third album, builds on the ska-driven mold the group has forged and offers up another dose of riddims, rap, and rollicking fun. Both the opening 'One Voice' and 'Fade Away' showcase power-chord rock rhythms broken only by the skintight staccato horn section. 'Away from You,' the first single, is indeed radio-friendly and will draw strong comparisons to classic Bob Marley. The 'tones can even slow down, as evidenced by 'Old Friend' and the final, reflective 'Refuge (In Conclusion).' --Michael Lyttle
