From his ‘80s beginnings in San Francisco punk band The Beatnigs, through his hugely acclaimed time fronting Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy – who gained a worldwide hit with ‘Television (The Drug Of The Nation)’ – to forming the band Spearhead in the mid-90s, Michael Franti's musical adventure has encompassed rock, punk, soul, reggae, hop-hop and more. Already a Top 20 album in the US and hailed by USA Today as full of “festival-friendly reggae-pop grooves and radiant, hope-filled songs”, ‘The Sound Of Sunshine’ is the perfect album to herald the summer of 2011.
