On-U Sound are proud to present Midnight Rocker a brand new album from Horace Andy, produced by Adrian Sherwood.
“On-U Sound are very proud to present a truly wonderful album with one of the all time great singer-songwriters in the rich history of Jamaican music, Horace Andy, This is a true gold star performance and I’m very proud of it.” – Adrian Sherwood.
Adrian Sherwood has spent a long time realising his dream of making an album with legendary Jamaican vocalist Horace Andy, beloved by reggae fans worldwide for his classic 70s and 80s tracks such as “Skylarking” and “Money Money”.
Midnight Rocker has been approached in a similar fashion to the late-career quality that Sherwood coaxed out of Lee “Scratch” Perry with the Rainford and Heavy Rain albums, assembling a crack team of players and spending many months perfecting performance, arrangements and mixing. The result is 11 remarkable tracks that sparkle with superb musicianship, carefully crafted production and some truly beautiful vocals from Andy.
As well as revisiting some Horace Andy classics like "Mr Bassie", "Materialist" and "This Must Be Hell" with fresh production, the album also features brand new material penned by LSK, Jeb Loy Nichols, George Oban and Adrian Sherwood. The pair have also versioned Safe From Harm, a much-loved early single by the group that Andy is most associated with, Massive Attack.
Midnight Rocker will be released on 8th April 2022, and is available to pre-order now on Red Vinyl, Black Vinyl, and CD, with an exclusive tote bag available from the official On-U Sound Store.
