Mellow Mood - Blazed and Confused Tour [2009]

Hailing from Columbus, Ohio, the seven piece “Reggae / Rap / Rock” fusion, Shrub, has been rapidly gaining momentum and building a solid national fan base since being voted by readers as High Times Magazine’s Unsigned Band of the Month in September of 2010.

Recently, Shrub released their first full length album, Highceratops, which debuted in the Top 10 on the iTunes Reggae Charts. The album features guest appearances by C-Money from Slightly Stoopid, Dubmatix, and Kimberly Freeman from One-Eyed Doll.

The band garners comparisons to artists like: Sublime, The Dirty Heads, Atmosphere, Gym Class Heroes, and G. Love, but Shrub maintains an innately unique and raw sound all their own. With the addition of new guitar player, Kevin Oliver, former member of the world’s funkiest band, Parliament/Funkadelic (George Clinton), Shrub’s sound has now quickly become full-grown.

“The Midwest has long been a hotbed for successful rap artists, but Shrub’s eclectic fusion of rap, reggae, and rock brings a whole new flavor to the scene.”

LONELINESS, THE EPIDEMIC:Reclaim Connection One Beat at a Time.


Loneliness today is more than a transient emotion—it has become an epidemic with tangible, devastating effects. 

Consider the stark statistics: one in six individuals worldwide feels lonely, and this isolation is linked to over 871,000 deaths each year. 

Loneliness not only inflicts emotional pain; it doubles the risk of depression and dramatically increases the chances of stroke, heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline. 

Furthermore, employers face billions in lost productivity and turnover costs annually. At its core, this crisis is rooted in a profound lack of human connection—a condition that undermines both our health and our economy. 

It is a call for renewed emphasis on community, empathy, and genuine companionship.

 
GENRE AS A VEHICLE FOR HEALING  
 

To battle this epidemic, we turn to music—a universal language that surpasses cultural and stylistic biases. 

The chosen genre is a precursor of jazz—ragtime enriched with dynamic jazz elements. This musical form is celebrated for its emotional neutrality and historical resonance. 

Ragtime and jazz, with their distinct instrumental and string sections coupled with a soulful tenor sax, provide a canvas that can bridge personal and cultural divides. 

This approach serves several key purposes:

• Neutrality and Inclusivity: Drawing on the ragtime roots of jazz bypasses modern biases, offering a medium that captivates diverse audiences with its timeless appeal.  

• Danceable and Upbeat Energy: The rhythmic, danceable cadence is intentionally crafted to elevate spirits and inspire movement—both physically and emotionally.  

• Clarity and Articulation: Featuring a male voice with clear diction guarantees that the motivational message is conveyed unambiguously, engaging the intellect and heart alike.

 
LYRICS: A CALL TO CONQUER LONELINESS  

The lyrics of “Loneliness” are a rallying cry against isolation. They reframe solitude as “the absence of someone else,” while describing emptiness simply as space filled with potential for warmth and connection. 

Each verse is a call to action—urging listeners to take a step, lend a hand, and unite to overcome isolation. 

The journey depicted in the lyrics moves from shadows into light, suggesting that collective action and shared kindness can transform our realm of darkness into one of hope. 

The powerful outro further reinforces this message by inviting each listener to add their voice to a communal chorus of hope, emphasizing that when individuals engage, share, and belong, loneliness can be conquered.

LYRICS:
All we want is to chase our own destiny
But sometimes we all let the winds of change move us so freely
How can I let another no one sow the seed
And expect Gaia to just leave me alone and allow me to be me

All I want is a fire down by the sea
Beneath the palms with my feet in the sand you can find me dreaming
Open my eyes to another in misery
Hate to see a good man fall prey to the mother****ing snakes of society

Under the sun our light will outlast
No time for waiting, life moves so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass
Bring the night, our light will outlast
We can't relax when they move so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass

On the path of life
The task simply is
Don't let the trash tempt me
Strictly keep it classic
And you'll surpass quickly
Powers that be
Will keep us second guessing
And asking the question
Is the glass half full or half empty
Some stars burn out
From fast entry
While others last a century
It's the mind state
Of this entire country
They want us to embrace the superficial
Make the masses feel special
While this empire 
They run it corruptly
Some do it for the income
But we do it for the outcome
Some of us are active
While others just let their mouths run
No doubt son
This is not just about fun
We will not be outdone 
By these cowards
Who shout scum
Upgrade your faith
Just to match your vision
And your decisions will have risen
From their natural prison
And if you listen you can hear every 
Snake in the grass
And you can see them
Through the break in the glass
Wake 'em at last
Come on

“Life exists only at this very moment, and in this moment it is infinite and eternal. For the present moment is infinitely small; before we can measure it, it has gone, and yet it exists forever… You may believe yourself out of harmony with life and its eternal Now; but you cannot be, for you are life and exist Now.”

Under the sun our light will outlast
No time for waiting, life moves so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass
Bring the night, our light will outlast
We can't relax when they move so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass

Under the sun our light will outlast
No time for waiting, life moves so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass
Bring the night, our light will outlast
We can't relax when they move so fast
Change the opposition, it shall come to pass
A break in the glass, a break in the glass
