What's It Called?

What's The Story?
The Idlers are the sort of band that get away with charging $15 cover to one of their shows downtown and still fill the place. They're a reggae outfit with a large cast to keep things interesting and outside of the usual it's-all-the-same-damn-song stereotype about reggae. Jiggerman is from their first full-length album Corner, and you can grab their tunes from their website.

Who's To Blame?
The cooking network's biggest fan?

Why ♥ It?
Like I said above, it's got the grooving feel of a reggae tune with some funked up percussion and an active horn session. Catchy vocal harmonies and great stoned energy. The lyrics offer a small slice of home. If you've ever heard a reggae tune and liked it, this is worth the listen.
