Jeb Loy Nichols

2016
Beat Records

Jeb Loy Nichols is a real oddity — an artist who could be called with equal justice a country singer and a soul singer, and one who has also made one of the most lovely reggae albums in the On-U Sound catalog. Accompanied by members of the legendary Roots Radics band, on this album Nichols delivers a program of original songs that chant down Babylon, but with gentleness and regret more than prophetic imprecation. And Sherwood’s production is absolutely perfect: spacious and uncrowded, with tasteful application of dub techniques and an admirable focus on Nichols’ attractively grainy voice.
