   About Border Roots
We've just entered our 10th year on the Mexican border.Reggae on the border makes a lot of sense if you know the history of roots music from Trenchtown. Well we come to pay respect an homage for the people who created this here sound. It goes without saying that we know the Gong and the likes of Jackie Mittoo, Tommy McCook, Robbie and Sly, Leroy Sibbles, D Brown, Buga Minott, Joe Hill and countless others laid down the foundation so that musicians like us could have a platform to sing about our experiences. We also salute the Rasta Movement as the light which brings us forward. But most of all, it's the people from all over who have connected with us and continue to give us encouragement. We just gonna carry on and do what we do. Thank you for visiting our space. Love and God Bless> Unity Horns are Sir Al, John and Marty

 Sour Soul w/ Low Luster League
In the year 2007 Sour Soul was formed and its’ members are David (drums & bass), Marco (vocals, bass, sitar, piano & Hammond), Juan Ra (vocals, rhythm guitar & banjo), Javi (lead guitar & bass), and Nico (drums & percussion).
The band’s musical genre is rock with elements of psychedelia from the sixties and also lots of funk, pop, and contemporary rock.
During the Winter of 2007, the band went to Sonic Ranch Recording Studios in El Paso, Texas (http://www.sonicranch.com), and recorded "Frantic" and "Alucinar", two songs produced by Ettore Grenci. In the Summer of 2008, seven songs followed the list; this time, Stephen Stuart Short (Paul McCartney, Echo and the Bunnymen, David Gilmour, Queen, Grateful Dead, Genesis and Peter Gabriel…) was commissioned to produce the material and that’s how the band’s debut album was conceived: Liquid Sky Divers.
Now, in Spring 2009, Sour Soul visited Sonic Ranch for the third time to add four new tracks to the album that were produced entirely by the band and thus, the recording sessions of Liquid Sky Divers were complete. The album’s reissue will be launched soon.
