Soothsayers

Soothsayers are a vibrant UK-based collective blending reggae, Afrobeat, jazz, and dub into their signature sound. Founded in the early 2000s by trumpeter Robin Hopcraft and saxophonist Idris Rahman, the band has become a fixture in London’s multicultural music scene, known for their soulful grooves and socially conscious lyrics. Over two decades, they’ve collaborated with legends like Ernest Ranglin and Amp Fiddler while staying rooted in grassroots activism, often weaving themes of unity and resilience into tracks like *We Won’t Lose Hope* and *Love Is Still The Answer*.

Their recent work, including collabs with Brazilian dub maestro Victor Rice and remixes like the pulsing *Last Days (Way Out West Mix)*, shows their knack for bridging genres and generations. Whether they’re dropping hypnotic brass lines on *Flying East* or experimenting with spaced-out dub versions, Soothsayers keep their sound fresh without losing that warm, communal vibe that’s made them a festival and soundsystem favorite.
