Reggae rock’s rise continues to shred guitars around the world and we’d have to say this was another gem of a year for the release of reggae rock albums and live music. Here are five 2023 reggae rock albums that stood out to Daily Reggae!

Mihali’s cover of “Complicated” by Avril Lavigne is so rad! When I first heard about this cover - part of the amazing “Pop Punk Goes Reggae” project led by Iya Terra’s Nathan Aurora - I wasn’t sure how this pop classic could be transformed into a reggae style banger, but Mihali did just that!

What does your teenage emo pop punk playlist have in common with reggae music? Absolutely nothing … until now! The extremely talented vocalist and lead guitarist of Iya Terra, Nathan Aurora, has created a project and successfully bridged the gap, composing a compilation of some of your favorite songs from a distant past performed by a new community of artists that put their own reggae twist to each of them.

Stick Figure puts a rad reggae twist on Green Day classic “Boulevard of Broken Dreams”. The single released by Ineffable Records is another gem of the “Pop Punk Goes Reggae Vol. 1” album produced by Iya Terra’s Nathan Aurora.

SOJA’s cover of Fall Out Boy’s “Sugar, We’re Goin Down” has us so excited to jam along with the upcoming release of “Pop Punk Goes Reggae”. The release is the rad passion project of Iya Terra’s Nathan Aurora, who has since released the equally awesome cover of My Chemical Romance’s “Helena”.
