Jimmy Cliff & Tim Armstrong

If punk rock and reggae hooked up and had a baby, this would be the final product. Jimmy Cliff and Tim Armstrong come from two separate worlds in the music industry, but have come together to form their new reggae-ska duo. Cliff is a world renown reggae artist from Jamaica, recognized for hits such as "I Can See Clearly Now" and "The Harder They Come". He even holds a seat in the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame. Armstrong was the front-man for the punk-ska band Operation Ivy, and later on the hardcore-punk groups Rancid, and the Transplants. He's also the owner of Hellcat Records. In November 2011, Cliff released an EP, produced by Armstrong, called "Sacred Fire" that includes a cover of the Clash song "Guns of Brixton", as well as a cover of Rancid's "Ruby Soho". The group plans on releasing a full studio album this year. These guys should provide a much needed mellow vibe through all the madness that is Coachella, so break out your lighters and spliffs, and enjoy the tunes.
