FREE YOUR AUTHENTIC HEART: F.Y.A.H. DELIVERS PASSION AND POWER
Jamaican roots reggae band F.Y.A.H. is making a fearless entrance with Free Your Authentic Heart, their debut album dropping via Dub Rockers, an imprint of VP Records. The 13-track release isn’t just a showcase of their sound—it’s a declaration of purpose.
Formed in 2020 under the leadership of Delroy “Pele” Hamilton, the Grammy-nominated bassist from Raging Fyah, the trio—rounded out by guitarist Nicolas Groskopf and vocalist Elton Earlington—emerged from the stillness of the pandemic with a fire that couldn’t be contained. They channel their deep reggae roots while embracing a spectrum of global influences, crafting music that’s as bold as it is soulful.
AT MY LOWEST, I SURRENDERED EVERYTHING TO MUSIC—NOW THESE SONGS ARE MY TRUTH
Free Your Authentic Heart is a journey through struggle, love, and triumph. From the anthemic resistance of track Freedom Fighter (featuring Steel Pulse) to the introspective ache of Live My Life, the album cuts deep.
British lovers rock icon Hollie Cook adds warmth to When I’m With You, while Brighter Day delivers a powerful message of resilience.
“This project is my life’s testimony,” says Pele. “At my lowest, I surrendered everything to music. Now, these songs are my truth, and I hope they bring you peace.”
