Coming off the heels of a full-length album **TAUK Moore** in collaboration with
Doom Flamingo vocalist **Kanika Moore**, TAUK adds an entrancing new layer of reggae
to their signature soundscapes in “Sky to Light.” The song was crafted out of an
idea keyboardist, **Airic Carter**, brought to the band after a morning text from
his dad sharing “Rock Fort Rock” by the Skatallites who hail from Jamaica where 
his dad grew up. “I heard the first 10 seconds, sprung outta bed and cut up samples
from the track immediately,” Carter exclaims, “ A vibe is contagious regardless 
of what generation or time. For me, this collaboration finds that balance.”

The collaboration between TAUK and Matisyahu emerged organically through interactions
on the festival circuit culminating in a session that flowed effortlessly.

“You never know how these collaborations will unfold,” says guitarist **Matthew 
Jalbert**. “But with Matisyahu, everything clicked instantly in the studio, bringing
an exciting new dimension to ‘Sky to Light,’ which blends our take on reggae with
heavier elements. We were all blown away at how quickly Matis was able to connect
with the song and bring in ideas that were powerful and so well put together. This
song to me is about searching and praying for peace.”

Matisyahu echoed the sentiment of enthusiasm for the project noting, “Working with
TAUK was a seamless and enjoyable experience. Their unique sound and creative energy
made the studio sessions incredibly productive and fun. I’ve been a fan of their
work for years, and collaborating on this track has been an inspiring opportunity
to blend our musical styles.” 

TAUK, known for their musical craftsmanship and multi-genre expansiveness, has been
a significant force in the festival circuit for over a decade. In addition to Carter
and Jalbert, the group features **Charlie Dolan** on bass and **Isaac Teel** on 
drums.

The group has toured with major acts such as Umphrey’s McGee and Lettuce and have
numerous notable festival appearances that include Bonnarroo, Electric Forest, and
more. This summer, the band will perform at 4848 Festival in Snowshoe, WV Carbondale
Mountain Fair in Carbondale, CO before playing a trio of dates with fellow circuit
heavyweights The Motet and Dopaopod in Michigan and Illinois.

This fall they will appear at Outermost Roots & Blues Festival in Orleans, MA curated
by innovative blues artist G. Love, Regime Music Group, and Hog Island Beer Company;
and Hulaween in Live Oak, FL.
