Ari-Up’s distinguished career has expanded in recent years, and this album marks her triumphant return to the front line. Ari-Up’s talents and unique style along with her trademark vocal prowess is both timeless and strikingly ahead of her time.

They paved the way for top female vocalists of today, including Bjork, Hole, No Doubt & more. Ari-Up has toured on the famous White-Riot tour with the Clash and the Sex Pistols, and is recently known as Medussa in Jamaica. Ari-Up says, “Now people are ready for my mixture of Dub, Dancehall, Hip-Hop and Drum ‘n’ Bass”. ******************* Contact: Stephanie Levine Converge Entertainment, Inc. 212-352-9123
