For their latest collaboration, Roberto Sánchez takes on the role of vocalist for The 18th Parallel, Fruits Records’ studio band with core members being Mathias Liengme (piano, organ, percussion), Antonin Chatelain (drummer), and Léo Marin (guitarist). It underscores the versatility of Roberto Sánchez who under the moniker Lone Ark shows that he’s also a good vocalist, which those who have followed him since the late ’90s are already aware of. Get You, an amazing modern roots reggae tune that harks back to the heyday of roots reggae in the ’70s, urges listeners to reflect on their way of life and their current consumer habits in a critical way. The 18th Parallel with additional musicians from the Lone Ark Riddim Force has laid an intoxicating powerful riddim track that benefits from the glorious horn parts played by Gorka Fernández (trumpet, trombone) and Saioa Jorrín (alto saxophone). And as one might expect, also the Version on the B-side is ear candy. Get You is the first single from the forthcoming Showcase album by Lone Ark and The 18th Parallel due for release later this year.
