Sgt. Remo & The Vibratones - No Man Stranded
The San Antonio, TX based reggae band Sgt. Remo & The Vibratones releases their second single No Man Stranded on Nov. 6, 2020. This song was originally released as a dancehall song almost ten years ago in Sgt. Remo’s debut EP Life is for Living (2012). When asked why release a new version of the song, Sgt. Remo states “this new roots version of the song was created during a band rehearsal. We were just jamming in the studio one night and the band started playing this riddim. I started singing the lyrics to No Man Stranded and the rest is history.” Since teaming up in early 2019, Sgt. Remo & The Vibratones have been creating their brand of roots reggae music right in the heart of Texas. The music has taken a course of its own.
