Of Good Nature's new single "Take Me Anywhere" captures the magnetic pull of desire through a vibrant, jazzed-up reggae sound that oozes warmth and longing. Atwood Magazine is proud to be premiering "Take Me Anywhere," the latest single from Charlotte, NC indie rock-reggae group Of Good Nature. The four-piece of guitarist Cameron Brown, percussionist Joey Vachon, trombonist Brandon Hucks, bassist Jon Reed, and drummer David Hamilton Jr. have made a name for themselves by fusing rich musical genres and styles together, as is certainly felt in "Take Me Anywhere" – the band's first in a string of single releases this year. Take Me Anywhere – Of Good Nature "We are stoked to release "Take Me Anywhere" as the first of three upcoming singles," Of Good Nature excitedly tells Atwood Magazine. "It certainly captures our growth as a band and as players and writers. Our blending of styles is developing into music that is approachable to everyone and we really dig that. The goal is to get our music to as many people as possible without sacrificing any creativity." "Take Me Anywhere" is a sonic throwback – to any kid from the '90s, the song will instantly remind you of the reggae pop and ska of your youth, with its lightly-rapped verse guiding us into a brass-heavy chorus. Vocalist Cameron Brown's voice is just scruffy enough; his emotions bubble over with every little inflection, highlighting the passion brewing in those simple, earnest lyrics. It's sunshine in a bottle – a little burst of Vitamin D washing over your ears. With a relatable story and bouncy, pulsing beat, Of Good Nature invite us to bask in the heat of our very own emotions.

In the four years since they put out their debut album 'Just Add Water' (which won Indie Ville Reggae Album of the Year), Of Good Nature has evolved into a four-piece band. The addition of trombone added the groovy funk element that lead singer and songwriter Cameron Brown felt would complete the band and give him the sound he'd been seeking since their first release. "The moment I heard B. Hucks play I knew he was going to play in our group. He finds the right melodies that slide into the song seamlessly. This can bring the trombone to the front of the song, more like a lead instrument, which is pretty uncommon. He knows when to step back and fill overall spaces acting like a keyboard when the song needs it. Unconventional, but perfect for our sound." The tracks on Life Worth Livin have an inherent reggae groove, while Brown consistently works in elements of funk, jam and indie rock, giving the songs room to go in different and compelling directions. From the poppy and funky 'Poppa Kohlly' to the acoustic grace and beauty of 'What Can I Do' to the reggae-rock title-track single that delivers a clear sociopolitical statement, the roots of Brown's musical upbringing are apparent–from blues and classic rock to jam and funk, and of course reggae. The end result is an album that has been favorably compared to Dave Matthews Band, Ballyhoo and Tauk. Howi Spangler, lead singer of Ballyhoo speaking about the title track: "The intro guitar/bass riff has that 311-shuffle vibe that I like. I dig that lazy trombone there too. I also like how the song goes more uptempo in the bridge, almost like a jam band. Then they bring it back down to finish it out. Nice to hear a solid American reggae rock song from an East Coast band." The most striking thing listeners will discover is the talented presentation of the many styles on Life Worth Livin; the rock, the funk and the pop elements are well-placed and always add rather than detract from their music. Of course, their reggae is the main attraction here, because as lead singer/songwriter Cameron Brown says, "Reggae always just felt right." All things considered, Life Worth Livin transcends the reggae tag, showing not only Of Good Nature's talent at blending eclectic styles, but also their depth, maturity and emotion. Live Worth Livin was recorded at Ocean Industries Studio in Charleston, SC, which is owned by Shinedown bassist Eric Bass. It was produced and engineered by Eric Rickert and Jeff Leonard Jr. (A song they engineered, 'Cut The Cord'-Shinedown, just spent 12 weeks at #1 on the Billboard rock chart–It's now #2.) It was mixed by Eric Rickert and mastered by Michael White. Irie Magazine wants you to get your copy of 'Life Worth Livin' which is available for download on iTunes and other platforms. Nuff Respect!
