Sent Us Away SunDub ft. Mike Love ✖ Earl 'Chinna' Smith

On “Sent Us Away”," Brooklyn-based reggae outfit SunDub joins forces with Hawaiian roots visionary Mike Love for a meditative exploration of displacement, resilience, and the search for peace. Driven by a steadfast riddim and the compelling, intertwined vocal deliveries of Joanna Teters and Love, the track captures the physical and spiritual weariness of an arduous journey. The lyrical narrative—charting paths through heat, humidity, and restless nights—is anchored by an unwavering persistence. It's a striking showcase of SunDub's continued evolution as songwriters who can effortlessly weave heavy, conscious themes into deeply infectious, dub-inflected grooves.

Co-produced by Ben Teters and reggae stalwart Sidney Mills, the single's sonic landscape is further grounded by the unmistakable rhythm and lead work of Jamaican guitar legend Earl "Chinna" Smith. This offering serves as a compelling preview of SunDub's upcoming full-length project while perfectly illustrating the collaborative ethos at the heart of the Easy Star Records catalog. Whether they are bridging transatlantic divides with Mo'Kalamity on “More Love⁠”," exploring heavy dub architecture alongside Scientist on the Meet The Spirits of N.Y.C. series, or aligning with the forward-thinking roots of labelmates like HIRIE and Indubious, SunDub continues to prove their pivotal role in uniting modern reggae's global voices.
