By: Jack Anderson

As founder of Texas’ first reggae band The Lotions and frontman of Austin’s premiere reggae outfit Mau-Mau Chaplains, it’s safe to say that  Alan Moe Monsarrat‘s lead a pretty IRIE life. And in light of all the heavy lifting Monsarrat’s been doing over the course of several decades and half a thousand shows, this Caribbean-style creator has just released his first solo album in a half century.

And with the excitement of election finally coming to a close you can just kick back and enjoy the growth with Agriculture, planting the seed now with “Turn The Tide”!
