Double Tiger – “Walk Away” (w/Sly & Robbie // Audio)
‘Walk Away’
Easy Star Records – Mar. 27, 2026
*Double Tiger – “Walk Away” (w/Sly & Robbie) https://doubletiger.bandcamp.com/album/walk-away // DOUBLE TIGER is BACK! This is the third new single from the celebrated reggae iconoclast and former member of John Brown’s Body in the last year, and the second collaboration with the legendary rhythm section of Sly & Robbie. The release obviously has added poignancy with the recent death of Sly Dunbar, meaning that any collaborations like this will become fewer and farther between. The track – and its corresponding dub – was mixed by Craig Welsch, a.k.a. Dub Fader, of 10 Ft. Ganja Plant.*
