When you mention the word “Reggae”, there are certain names that immediately spring to mind like Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Third World to name a few, but another artist that is firmly on the tip of people’s tongues is Luciano. Born on the paradise island of Jamaica, as a youth he was heavily influenced and drawn to Bob Marley’s positive “One Love Movement”. As he got older and embarked on his own professional singing career, Luciano himself began to influence the lives of others around the world with his own spiritual interpretation of the movement. Since then, he has reigned as the “King Of Conscious Reggae Music” and is now one of the most iconic figures representing roots reggae today. Luciano entered the reggae industry in the early 90’s and eventually teamed up with Phillip ‘Fattis’ Burrell, one of the few producers around at the time that supported conscious roots music. The quality material produced by this partnership, coupled with the fact that by now Luciano’s style and vibe was so heavily influenced by Bob Marley, caught the attention of Chris Blackwell of Island Records. Chris eventually signed Luciano and the collaboration produced a string of #1 hits including an album that was voted amongst the top 30 reggae albums of all time by Mojo magazine.

Saturday Morning Strolls-January Theme:  Animal Tracks and Signs

Hailing from Louisville, Kentucky, Tantric has built a legacy as one of the most distinctive voices in American rock. Blending post-grunge grit with soaring harmonies, acoustic textures, and a heavy edge, the band carved out a sound that bridges the raw emotion of the late ’90s and the driving force of modern rock. Formed in 1999 and led by frontman Hugo Ferreira—the group’s powerhouse vocalist, songwriter, and rhythm guitarist—Tantric quickly made waves with their signature mix of melodic depth and hard-hitting energy. Their music draws comparisons to post-grunge icons like Alice in Chains and Days of the New, a connection strengthened by their early collaboration with producer Toby Wright (known for his work with both bands). Wright’s influence helped shape Tantric’s signature layered vocal harmonies and dynamic sound. Over the years, Tantric’s lineup and style have evolved, embracing new textures and creative directions. The addition of electric violinist Marcus Ratzenboeck introduced a haunting melodic element that reimagined their catalog and pushed their music into new territory. Today, Ferreira is joined by Matt Fuller (lead guitar, backing vocals) and Christian F. Lawrence (drums), bringing renewed fire and precision to Tantric’s live performances. Known for powerful shows that blend nostalgia with innovation, Tantric continues to prove why they remain a force in American rock. Whether you’ve been a fan since the early 2000s or you’re just discovering their sound, a Tantric show is an unforgettable experience—filled with passion, energy, and the kind of music that stands the test of time.

Choose an Austin Prep Education Rooted in Augustinian Values

Austin Preparatory School

Austin Preparatory School, located in Reading, Massachusetts, is an independent Catholic prep school rooted in the Augustinian tradition. Serving students in grades 6 through 12, Austin Prep has cultivated a close-knit learning community since its founding in 1961. Guided by its mission to inspire hearts to unite, minds to inquire, and hands to serve, the school challenges students through a rigorous college preparatory program that includes honors and Advanced Placement courses, personalized instruction, and intentionally small classes. An Austin Prep education is preparation for the journey of life. Beyond academics, the school’s unwritten curriculum – the lived expression of veritas, unitas, and caritas (truth, unity, and love) – forms the heart of its mission. “At Austin Prep, we are on a journey that is life-changing and important,” says Head of School James Hickey, Ph.D. “Our patron, St. Augustine, embarked on a journey for the truth. At our core is an institution on the same journey, committed to exemplary teaching and learning.” Serving grades 6–12 under one roof allows this leading prep school to guide students through every stage of development—academic, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Community stands at the center of this experience, nurturing belonging and inspiring students to lead lives of purpose. Austin Prep athletics teams, competing in the New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC), are recognized among the best north of Boston, reflecting the same drive and integrity found in the classroom. Nearly every graduate continues on to a four-year college, prepared not only for success in higher education but for a meaningful life shaped by faith, friendship, and service.
