Here are a few words I wrote after checkin out the show:
Just got back from seeing Spearhead in concert at the Enmore Theatre……..basically, it was a really great show. He mostly played songs from “All Rebel Rockers” and “Yell Fire,” but he also threw in some other stuff like the title track from “Everyone deserves [...]

Back when Spearhead issued their second studio album in March 1997, the internet was nowhere near as big a phenomenon as it is now. As a matter of fact, I had absolutely no idea that it had even been released and was therefore pleasantly surprised to find the album sitting right there on the shelf [...]

Michael Franti & his crew released their fifth album “Yell Fire” in mid 2006 over here in the land down under via Liberation Records. It was backed with a bonus DVD featuring highlights from his first ever film project “I Know I’m Not Alone,” which was all about his trip to Iraq.

In February 2005 I headed on over to Spearhead’s official website, www.spearheadvibrations.com, because I hadn’t been there in a while. Needless to say, I came across a banner on the homepage stating “Coming soon to Australia ONLY: Michael Franti – Love Kamikaze: The Lost Sex Singles.” At first I thought this was going to be [...]

Prior to this album’s official release, Michael Franti posted a message on his website, Spearhead Vibrations, saying that so many songs had been recorded for the last Spearhead record, “Stay Human,” that exactly nine months after their third record was due for release, another brand new album was going to be released as its follow-up.
