Media Quotes:
Now, as a solo artist, all of those influences have been channeled into a soulful, upbeat gospel sound, but one driven by breezy brass, groove-some, funky rhythms, slick guitar licks, and, gorgeous and mature vocal tones. “Water” is the sound of the modern age being offered a new take on timeless sounds. It is also a reminder that there are plenty of new places to take the established genres of the past and that all sounds and styles are ripe for reinvention. How do I know? Because I have just listened to Jeshua Marshall, that’s how.

Anyone who enjoys the drive of the 60s Sly & the Family StoGlobevill2ne, the inventiveness rock cum rhythm & blues of Prince & soul crooning of Angelo Bond will find this engaging. While the instrumentation has flare & sparks it never comes gets out of control & remains gratifying. “Water” opens the set & by “The Flood,” a more reggae-inspired tune plugged into a highly charged presentation is a winner. The songs have an enticing array of styles. Varied brass takes that make each song convincing. A highly enjoyable showcase.

Fast-paced and loaded with equal parts organic and distorted sound design, Jeshua Marshall injects a heavy hit of rhythm and anthem-like energy into the scene with this infectious and striking new single No More. Drawing subtle comparisons style-wise with the likes of Rusted Root as much so as Cat Empire and even The Hives to an extent, the song soon goes on to further increase its brightness with a conceptual writing style that draws on precisely the issues that have torn apart societies and the lives of many; culminating in a plethora of riots and divide across America in 2020. Underneath this, we get a clear sense of intention and topical poignancy. Brilliant.
Well worth a listen.
