"The transcendental appeal of the Washington, D.C.- based SOJA has as much to do with their simply and traditionally constructed reggae tunes as it does with their universally appealing messages of hope and peace…”<b>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12pt;">
"…reggae, infused with strains of rock, folk and dub, provides a complementary framework for lead singer/songwriter/guitarist Jacob Hemphill's sinewy vocals and poignantly drawn lyrics of social resistance, environmental consciousness and personal reflection…"
<b><i>–Billboard </i></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 12pt;">
“The lineup of vocalist/guitarist Jacob Hemphill, bassist Bobby Lee, percussionist Kenneth Brownell, keyboardist Patrick O’Shea and drummer Ryan Berty has grabbed attention with its positive message and high-energy shows for more than six years.”
