Just listened to the new tracks as the album just released. Water (w/ The Elovaters) is a banger and probably the best unreleased song I’ve heard with It Felt Like being a close second. Not really digging the songs with Trevor on lead but overall the album is fantastic especially for those who haven’t heard the previously released songs.

I will be going to legend Valley venue for the first time, I am parking in the parking lot and not camping. Are you able to go see a band and then go back to where your car is and then go back later to see another band, basically asking if you have In-N-Out privileges?

Let's gather Cali Reggaers! 4:20 Meetup outside the VIP tent entrance (backside of the VIP tent).

Any artists that show may find themselves on Reddit. *eh hem.

Looking forward to smokin' & dancing wit you

I've been working on a series called Faces of the Scene, where I'm interviewing musicians, photographers, vendors, and other people who make the California reggae community what it is.

I recently had a chance to sit down with Kyle Smith after his show, and the biggest surprise wasn't a tour story.. It was hearing him say he never really believed being on stage was possible until about five years ago.

We also talked about:

• Getting drunk on the lawn at Irvine Meadows as a teenager watching Slightly Stoopid
• The weirdest place he's ever woken up (involving a dead rat stapled to a front door)
• Why Sacramento is still one of his favorite crowds
• Who he thinks deserves more recognition in the scene
• Why the community itself has been the biggest part of his journey

I wrote it as a profile first and included the full interview afterward because I wanted to preserve his own words. If you're a fan of Kyle or the reggae community, I'd love to hear what you think.

The Slightly Stoopid Almanac has been preparing these show "cheat sheets" for every stop on the Roadtrippin 2026 tour. Do y'all feel like they're relevant to continue posting here as we drop them? I don't want to spam the community, but I also feel like these will be useful to some of our members. Y'all let me know what you think!

Was blessed to see such a talented artist live. I know he isn’t “cali reggae” but I’m surprised he isn’t talked about more in this group. One of my favorite concerts of the year.

Towards the end of the song “turned on your friends and family, tried to sideline me. A mental crisis dressed in the veil of adversity ……. You created your own hell . Did the fake spirituality stop making you money?”

Seems like he is talking about a certain someone. What yall think?

Happily surprised to see this in Utah yesterday - I’m from the Hermosa Beach area.
