Description
Jason Wilson and Dave Swarbrick team up for 'Lion Rampant': a convention-busting folk-reggae epic. Special guests include Martin Carthy, Pee Wee Ellis and John Kirkpatrick.
According to Canadian reggae artist (Dr) Jason Wilson, Scottish and Irish music arrived in Jamaica roughly simultaneously with mento and ska's slavery-borne African roots, playing an under-recognised role in reggae's evolution. He also identifies all these sounds as rebel music, the unifying concept behind 'Lion Rampant' with English fiddle icon Dave Swarbrick
