SUMMARY:Mystic Bowie’s Talking Dreads: A Reggae Tribute To The Talking He
 ads
DESCRIPTION:On “Life During Wartime\,” the first single from Talking He
 ads’ 1979 album Fear of Music\, David Byrne famously sang the immortal l
 yrics\, “This ain’t no party\, this ain’t no disco…no time for dan
 cing…” Yet all those anti-fun declarations go gleefully out the window
  when Mystic Bowie\, aka the “Head Dread\,” takes the stage\, re-imagi
 ning and infusing fresh life into the Talking Heads’ classic catalog wit
 h his high octane mix of roots reggae\, ska and lover’s rock (aka “rom
 antic reggae”). Since debuting his musically revolutionary Talking Dread
 s project live at the High Times Music Festival on the beach in Negril in 
 late 2015\, the charismatic Jamaican-born singer and performer has electri
 fied audiences at more than 300 shows across North America – spinning th
 e heads of initially skeptical Talking Heads fans\, and getting everyone e
 lse grooving along to the infectious\, joyous rhythms and jubilant spirit 
 of his native island. Considering the success of these events\, it was onl
 y a matter of time before Bowie – who has lived in the Northeastern U.S.
  for many years – headed back to his cherished homeland and set up shop 
 at the famed Barry O’Hare Studios in Ocho Rios. He gathered old friends 
 he had played music with since childhood\, along with younger musicians\, 
 legendary Jamaican artists and other surprise guests to capture all the ma
 gic of his live performances on the epic\, 13 track recording Mystic Bowie
 ’s Talking Dreads.
