Ladders

The Loving Paupers have released their new album, Ladders, on Easy Star Records. The band, hailing from Washington, DC, features lead singer Kelly Di Filippo, known for her work on tracks by Jon Quan and others. Legendary Don Letts describes the band's sound as a mix of roots reggae and lovers rock, stating, "I don't know how this Washington, DC-based dub reggae outfit was brought up, but for the most part, like me, they seem to have been raised with sixties pop hitting them in one ear and seventies reggae hitting them in the other." This unique blend sets The Loving Paupers apart from their contemporaries in the US and world reggae scene.
