  • Bio

    As Northern Vermonts roots reggae band, Conscious Roots has come together to create a mix of original music blending afro-beat rhythms, ska, jazz,and rock. Celebrating our fifth year together, our style has been compared to Rage Against the Machine meets the fathers of reggae. The philosophy held is that this is not a place but a state of mind that continues throughout daily life. With a progressive message of hope and unity we have become Vermonts biggest underground reggae band, where we hold our community of people to the highest regards. Picking up Grammy nominated drummer Jason Corbiere, Room Full of Blues, this band of Vermonters has taken the next step towards the ultimate goal of bringing people together, no matter what differences we have. Everybody keep truckin' and we'll see ya at the next show.

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT PERSISTENCE ...

    "Lots of people LIMIT THEIR POSSIBILITIES by

    GIVING UP EASILY.   NEVER tell yourself this is

    Keep BELIEVING and keep on KEEPING ON."

    Have a GREAT WEEKEND Conscious!
     
    We can change the world with Kindness and Love!

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ON THE POWER OF KINDNESS ...

    "You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of

    this WORLD'S HAPPINESS.

    How?

    By giving A FEW WORDS OF SINCERE APPRECIATION to

    someone who is LONELY or DISCOURAGED.

    Perhaps you will forget tomorrow what KIND WORDS you say

    today, but the recipient may cherish them OVER A LIFETIME."

    ~ Dale Carnegie
