Michael Franti Michael Franti San Francisco In creating their ninth studio album SOULROCKER, Michael Franti & Spearhead introduced a new sensibility to their potent hybrid of hip-hop, rock, folk, and reggae: a gracefully arranged take on electronic music that more than fulfills the band’s mission of making impassioned music you can dance to. Along with harnessing the Bay Area-based band’s dynamic energy for a more powerful impact than ever before, SOULROCKER again shows Franti’s singular ability to channel frustration into music that’s both thought-provoking and triumphantly hopeful. “Right now is a very challenging time for people, for our nation and the planet,” says Franti, a longtime activist and past recipient of Global Exchange’s Domestic Human Rights Award. “But I really believe that music can help fight war and violence and hatred. The world needs that more than ever now, so my intention with this album was to make music that could bring people together.” Michael Franti’s tracks Trying to Keep the Lights On by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:20:06Z People Need People by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:19:55Z Life is Amazing by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:19:23Z Best at Loving You by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:19:10Z Baby Let Your Soulshine by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:18:54Z Life Reminds Us We're Alive by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:18:35Z Better by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:18:16Z No Makeup by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:20:23Z Follow Your Heart by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:19:36Z Brighter Day by Michael Franti published on 2022-03-18T00:20:49Z
