Reviewer: A music fan Rising Lion are one of those groups that come around town every few months and play a solid show of Reggae/Rock. Danny Dread is the Burning Spear of a new Reggae generation. When he plays live it's always a different group of musicians, and always a nice mix of Reggae, Funk, Rock and Hip Hop. This is the long awaited follow up to "New Day" I've been waiting for 4 years for this to come out! Check out Rising Lion's "Don't Lose Yourself" on RPH Records it's one of the best new CDs to come out this year!
