Singer And Players is a 2025 roots production from Lone Ark, the studio and musical collective led by Spanish producer Roberto Sánchez. Over the last two decades, Sánchez has become one of the most respected figures in modern roots reggae thanks to his analog recording techniques, deep dub sensibility and collaborations with veteran Jamaican artists such as Earl Zero, The Viceroys, Milton Henry and Alpheus. His Lone Ark studio is widely recognised for recreating the warmth and detail of 1970s Jamaican reggae with remarkable accuracy.
This album continues that lineage. Singer And Players brings together vocal cuts and instrumental performances in the classic roots tradition, echoing the sound once crafted at influential studios like Channel One and Harry J during reggae’s Rockers era. Expect earthy basslines, live-played drums, crisp guitar chops and dub-ready arrangements — all trademarks of the Lone Ark approach.
Released on the Messengers label (catalogue MSSG 007), the record fits within a growing movement of European roots productions that honour the original Jamaican sound while offering modern clarity. For collectors of contemporary roots reggae, Lone Ark releases are consistently praised for their high production values and musical authenticity.
