Rootz Within: New Music and Upcoming Shows [Artist Feature]

Rootz Within returns to the studio and the stage to share their sophomore album, Incrementum. 

“The album is a reflection of multiple things myself and the band went through over the past few years, ” shared Jonah Bowe. “The recording process was a lot of fun and really gave us a chance to experiment and grow as people and musicians.”

Jonah Bowe is the lead vocalist and guitarist of Rootz Within. He performs alongside Tyler Renney, Scott Thompson, Anita Cargiuolo, and Ryan Engberg.

Incrementum was released on June 30 and features 13 new tracks. The album leans into the band’s rock elements more than previous releases, but still showcases Rootz Within’s recognizable reggae sound.

The band posted on Facebook that the album title, “incrementum,” is Latin for growth. They felt that it encompassed the band’s collective experience since its last release in 2018, Aloha Aina.

“We spent a lot of time on it and it means a lot to us. We just hope people enjoy it and it gives them a deeper look into life and the different things we all go through,” said Jonah Bowe. 

Fans can catch Rootz Within at various shows over the next month. Their hometown album release party will take place in Detroit Lakes, MN on August 20 at Detroit Mountain Recreation Area. The show is free and open to all ages!

Highly anticipated by all is their third appearance at the space-themed event, Galactic Get-Down Music Festival, in New Richmond, WI! 

Galactic Get-Down is scheduled to take place on August 27, 28 and 29 at River’s Edge Campground. The 6th annual festival is co-hosted by Space Monkey Mafia and Dead Larry. Rootz Within will walk on the Moon Stage on Saturday at 2:00 p.m.
