   I hope you enjoyed the last 5 posts of Surf Locus about our Road Trip to Vicentina Coast and Algarve, Portugal 2013. There will surely be more posts at Surf Locus about travelling and experiencing the world.

   Recently I found this amazing blog about a couple that has been doing a Surf Trip around the World for 1 year and a half. Lately I have been thinking about doing the same and this comes as a great inspiration. Take some time to read Surfing Around the World blog!

  Today I want to show you a very good Portuguese Reggae Musician, Richie Campbell. With two albums released he is one of the most well-known Reggae musicians of Portugal.

"Strength to Survive" by SOJA and "New Day Dawn" by Gentleman, two awesome Reggae albums

  Today I want to show you two great Reggae albums from SOJA and Gentleman. The last album from Soldiers of Jah Army (SOJA) was released at January 2012 and is really good and kind of different from their other albums, so I strongly recommend you to listen to "Strength to Survive". Here is two song from this awesome album:

  Also a great album is "New Day Dawn" by Gentleman, released last April. Following "Diversity", this new album is also very good, with beautiful songs like "You Remember", "In My Arms", "New Day Dawn" and "Homesick". Let me show you two of these songs:

  Sorry if I sometimes share songs with Grooveshark and other times with YouTube. The problem is that I can't publish here some YouTube songs due to some legal cause and some of them I can't find in Grooveshark.

  I hope you liked the previous songs from SOJA and Gentleman. Have Fun!!

Matisyahu and his expression through music

      Today i want to share what i think is a great person and musician. Is name is Matthew Paul Miller, known as Matisyahu. He is a Reggae/Hip-Hop/Beat Boxer singer that really puts the soul in his music. Matisyahu is Jewish, and his religion is fully expressed in his songs. I find his lyrics very beautiful and meaningful and he is surely one of my favorite artists.

    I leave you here with two songs; the first in a Reggae Tone, from the Album "Live at Stubb's" and the second an acoustic version of his song "Crossroads". Please take time to analyse his lyrics and the way he express himself through his music. Give me Feedback ;) By the Way, what is your favorite Artist? And Why?
