CYAA TOUCH DI ROOTS - SESSION 13

Lion Trod is an International Roots & Dub Selector born in Manchester, Jamaica. Trod aims to spread a righteous message throughout the earth with the direction of the Almighty and the powers of Roots Music.

Versatility, creativity, modern vocal sound fused with rootical style, Royell Walker known as Dan Gio “the roots warrior” is one of roots reggae’s newest recording artist. A love and passion for music, he is also a studio engineer, producer.
Resident of the sunshine city Portmore, Royell has always had great desires to become a professional musician. He displayed these attributes from early days in High School. Dan has gone through a musical transition from being a rapper, dancehall artist and now a positive cultural messenger which led to his new love of Rastafarian revolutionary music.
July 2013 saw Dan Gio making a total commitment to honor and hollow his calling to be a leader and a positive example for friends and brethren’s in and around his community. Dan did a promo reggae album entitled “ITERNAL KNOWLEDGE” which was released in 2013 and is doing exceptionally well all over Europe” it was chosen and nominated by Reggaeville Magazine as one of the best albums for 2013. I see this as a great achievement for Dan, He is extremely talented and hardworking. In December 18, 2015 was the official release of his EP entitled MORE LOVE Ep produced by Humble Warrias Entertainment and House Of Riddim. 
According to Dan Gio, an amplified Roots Reggae Artist, the answer and solution to the words problems is More Love. He packaged this message in a four track EP titled – More Love, and he sings nothing but More Love in all four tracks. There is the original roots mix of More Love as the opening rack laced with a heavy bass line, giving it that authentic roots reggae vibe. It is then followed by the Acoustic Mix of the same title isolating the vocal abilities and sensibilities of the Jamaican native and amplifying the message. He then flips it on the dub side, on track number three, in true foundation style. The last track is an electronic mix because the mission of spreading love cannot be limited to one genre and in order to connect with the global market, an electronic mix was added which might resonate with the young generation.
The emergence if artistes like Dan Gio from Jamaica is crucial. Here is a young roots reggae singer who is not necessarily a roots revivalist but an organic roots singer, debunking the myth that reggae in Jamaica does not exist anymore. Here is proof that is does. The mainstream media will never know what roots reggae is all about. Artist like Dan Gio continue from where the foundation has left and carry the baton into the next generation. More Love Ep was produced by Humble Warrias Entertainment and House of Riddims Productions which saw its release in December 2015 and available on all leading online distribution channels. 
Without a doubt Dan always has been consistent working in the studio where he release The Emotional Tide Ep produced by Soulrock Collective and Proactive Revolution Album produced by both Hpuse Of Riddims and his label. Dan recently collaborated with Little Lion sound which gave the birth of smashing hit “Champion Sound” which displays the sound system culture. This single gained major traction worldwide especially in the European space. 
Dan has also completed his Acoustic Album “Dan Gio Meets Lion Trod In Lime Tree Lane” produced by Zion Trod Records in which he release two singles from it “Lime Tree Lane & Come Closer”.
