CONFIRMED! Groundation officially launches Building an Ark in South America at the end of August!

The Groundation has already shown on five continents why it is one of the greatest powers in the world Reggae. In Brasil, in addition to the sold out shows on their last tour, this strength was proven with the release of the new album “Building an Ark” in April, which quickly reached the top of the important charts and was among the most talked about topics on the Internet. Three days after its release, the album was already the 3rd most downloaded on the mobile operator's Online Store Claro, behind only Madonna and Mr. Catra. In the weekly ranking of Crowley, one of the most important in the country, Groundation came in 4th place overall in terms of digital music downloads, ahead of popular national names such as Latino, Nação Zumbi, Capital Inicial, Rita Lee and Jeito Moleque. As if that weren't enough, the single “Humility”, which gave rise to a beautiful music video, came in second place in the ranking of independently distributed music in Brasil, behind only a country duo featuring the singer Gusttavo Lima. To celebrate the huge success, the band will be on América do Sul from August 21st to September 10th officially launching the album, with their new show which is selling out tickets at the moment for almost Europa. The band, which headlines the biggest festivals of its kind in the world, has acquired respect that has led to partnerships with several Jamaican reggae legends on its albums, names such as Don Carlos, Apple Gabriel, The Congos, Ijahman Levy, Pablo Moses and Ras Michael, all of this combined with the distinct fusion of Reggae with Jazz and elements of R&B and Soul that make the sound of Groundation adored by followers not only Reggae, but several other musical styles.
