Soja

Arlington, Virginia band Soja (Soldiers of Jah Army) has taken the world by storm with its unique fusion of roots reggae, dub and ska. Unlike many contemporary American reggae music, Soja seems to subscribe to some of the values of the Rastafarian religion, a spiritual practice common in traditional Jamaican reggae music. More than anything else, peace, love and war seem to be central to the band's music, and this is likely a large reason why they have captured the hearts of so many different audiences around the world.
