Hailing from the Caribbean nation of Anguilla and raised in the
streets of New York City, Letmegoo founder Jahmings Maccow synthesizes
the rhythms and wisdom of the streets in "Man Redemption", his latest
title and the upcoming full album rock reggae release "Soul Epiphany",
whose debut single "I" premieres spring 2009.

Keeping with the free spirit of reggae, musician Jahmings Maccow is
launching Letmegoo, a new record label focusing on developing and
promoting the careers of independent reggae artists and bands. The
first full album releases under the Letmegoo label will be Man
Redemption, a full length roots reggae studio album debuting January
2009, and Soul Epiphany, a collection of rock reggae musings to be
released during the later half of 2009. Music enthusiasts will have
the opportunity to preview Soul Epiphany in spring of 2009 when "I",
its first single, is released.

Native to the Caribbean nation of Anguilla and spent his teenage years
in New York City, has already experienced success as an independent
reggae artist. In addition to "Rebels", a single by Maccow that
propelled itself to the top of Anguillian radio charts, Maccow has
opened for numerous reggae greats, including Ken Boothe, Alton Ellis,
The Meditations, Israel Vibration, Dennis Brown and Culture.

This background, steeped in reggae's history, combined with Maccow's
ingenuity, lends Maccow's music a particular character that readily
connects today's audiences with the genre's origins in the social and
political history of the Caribbean.

"I want to keep the memory of my people's struggle alive," says
Maccow, who adds that change is not possible without an understanding
of the past.

Two years in the making, Man Redemption, is more than your typical
roots reggae album, as Maccow borrows from many genres that developed
as a form of protest against racism and other social injustices, such
as Delta blues, electric blues, and rock.

Plans are currently underway for Man Redemption's promotional tour,
which will take place summer 2009 and reunite Maccow with Cliff
Odonoghue, his former bandmate from Catch-a-Fire. The two plan to play
at venues across the United States to promote Man Redemption.
