EPK 2026

As they approach the third anniversary of their album Spirits Eat Music, SunDub is excited to mark the moment with a special release. Two tracks from the album “Spirits Eat Music” and “Jump and Dance” (featuring reggae legend Lutan Fyah) have been reimagined by the iconic dub engineer, Scientist. Known for shaping the sound of reggae and dub with his groundbreaking mixes, Scientist has brought his unmistakable touch to these songs, pushing the bass deeper, stretching the echoes wider, and uncovering new dimensions within the music. These remixes are both a celebration of how far Spirits Eat Music has carried the band over the past three years and an invitation to experience the record in a whole new light.

Brooklyn Riddim is a reggae compilation produced by Brooklyn-based band SunDub and released by NYC’s renowned Easy Star Records. This project brings together a diverse lineup of local and international artists, each contributing their own unique lyrics and vocal interpretations over SunDub’s original instrumental track. Blending modern and classic reggae influences, Brooklyn Riddim features performances from an all-star cast, including SunDub, Cas Haley, King Cruff, The Meditations, Clatta Bumboo, Vysionaer, Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad, Easy Star All-Stars, and more. The result is a vibrant and eclectic compilation that showcases reggae’s rich storytelling tradition while celebrating the genre’s global reach.

Earlier this summer, as they began rolling out music from their second full-length album, SunDub kicked things off by showcasing three diverse singles showing multiple facets of their musical approach on Spirits Eat Music. Starting with “Jump And Dance,” featuring Lutan Fyah, the Brooklyn-based five-piece delivered an irresistible feel good tune perfect for the warm summer months. Switching it up, next came the title track “Spirits Eat Music,” a catchy tune with a heavier theme that speaks to a personal message of love and loss for the band. The latest single “New Ways To Love,” featuring GRAMMY-winning vocalist Peetah Morgan (of Morgan Heritage), inspires an optimistic outlook towards life through its uplifting lyrics. The official video for the song (https://youtu.be/NTh2UPrsLZ0) was just released, further showcasing the playful and positive nature of the track. The video was filmed on location in Florida and was directed, shot, and edited by David Svedosh.

The three singles garnered positive press, accolades, and radio support from tastemakers, including BBC’s Sir David Rodigan, which added to the anticipation for the album. Now the wait is over with Spirits Eat Music finally dropping on all digital platforms through Easy Star Records. Simultaneously, vinyl and CD editions of the record can be pre-ordered (HERE), along with a new, exclusive T-shirt design. All copies pre-ordered will be autographed by the band. The physical versions of the album will be released January 13.

Spirits Eat Music was recorded at Lydgate Sound in Kauai, HI, in May 2021. Joanna Teters explains, “We got an invitation to record at Lydgate Sound, a special studio located on a remote cacao farm. The island and farm envelopes its visitors with lush nature and sweet sunshine, offering a beautiful kind of inspiration that can only come from being disconnected to our everyday lives and distractions.” Ben Teters enthusiastically adds, “We enlisted Sidney Mills (Steel Pulse) to engineer and co-produce the album. We worked with Sidney on our first album Burden of Love – the opportunity to go deep for two weeks in the studio with him took the project to new heights.”

“Burden of Love" features reggae royalty The Chronic Horns (Easy Star All-Stars), Larry McDonald (Lee Scratch Perry, Gil Scott-Heron) and is mixed and co-produced by Sidney Mills (Steel Pulse). They lend their talents to Joanna Teters' commanding and soulfully smoky lead vocals and blend seamlessly with the super tight arrangements of the SunDub rhythm section. The result is a stand out expression of reggae’s classic undulating pulse and lush subterranean grooves, reinvented for listeners of all times and genres.

“Close to Me Dub” is drenched in reverb and puts an airy, psychedelic vibe on SunDub’s most popular song. Concluding the ‘SunDub Meets Victor Rice’ EP, Rice reimagines the original vocal-heavy song in an exploratory dub to appeal to a different audience and expose younger fans to the art of dub remixing. Old school heads with Lee Scratch Perry and King Tubby records in their collection will vibe with the authenticity while younger listeners will get lost in the echoing hypnosis throughout the entire 3-song EP.

On the heels of their summertime dub EP release, Brooklyn-based band SunDub now brings you “Ain’t Nobody,” the celebrated funk/soul classic, first released in 1983 by Rufus and Chaka Khan.  SunDub, fronted by lead singer Joanna Teters, redresses this classic, giving it a perfectly fitting reggae makeover you didn’t know it needed. Teters pays homage to the original with her own powerhouse vocals, while the band serves up a heavy rocking, reverb-drenched groove, highlighting the song's iconic essence. The track, which features Sidney Mills (Steel Pulse) on organ, as well production and mixing credits, represents an evolution in the SunDub sound and provides an exciting glimpse into the future. “Ain’t Nobody” was recorded at The Creamery Studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn before the sweeping COVID shutdowns that paralyzed New York City earlier this year.

SunDub’s next victim in their series of reggae-flipped R&B hits is none other than the massive 90’s power ballad “Don’t Let Go (Love)” by En Vogue. This anthemic and explosive track aims straight at the hearts of 80’s babies and reggae fans alike, once again highlighting SunDub’s high-level musicianship and production chops. The searing guitar riffs and relentless rhythm section center around the lead vocal that carries each section forward with new purpose and passion. Teters’ interpretation of En Vogue’s lyrics is sure to bring the timeless “unrequited love” story to a new audience while thrilling unexpecting fans of the original.
