VP Records introduces singer/songwriter Duane Stephenson, former lead singer of To-Isis. The Kingston native and August Town raised culture sensation enters the roots realm with blissful poignant vocals and carefully crafted melodies on his debut album From August Town, produced by the legendary Dean Frasier.
Stephenson beautifully portrays of love, culture and spirituality throughout his first release. In his title track, “August Town,” Stephenson pleas and give thanks to Jah's guidance during his rocky journey as a youth growing up in August Town. “Cottage In Negril” is a cleverly done cover of Tyrone Taylor's lover's rock hit in the 80s. Stephenson unveils pure realization and pain on his new single “Ghetto Pain” concerning the trials and tribulations of the oppressed. The classic album also boasts many artists' collaborations with Anthony B, Mystic Routes, Rochelle Bradshaw and label brother Tarrus Riley.
