DOMINIC BALLI
California native Dominic Balli’s chosen musical identifier -- as purveyor of “CaliRockReggae”-- quickly gives one a glimpse of the sonic style residing within the man’s output. With influences ranging from Stevie Wonder to Bob Marley to Lauryn Hill, Balli's music is a combination of soulful melodies, gripping lyrics, and hip-hop grooves. His first independent release, Public Announcement (2008), sold more than 20,000 copies, landing Balli's debut effort among iTunes' Top 30 Reggae Albums in 2008 and 2009. The project additionally produced a Top 30 Christian Hit Radio single with "All We Need Is Love" in 2010, while affording Balli the opportunity to perform alongside such top artists as Natasha Beddingfield, Jazon Mraz, Ziggy Marley, Hawk Nelson, Lecrae, Phil Wickham, and Barlow Girl. Balli's follow up album, American Dream, releases July 26, 2011. Featuring Sonny Sandoval of P.O.D on the title track as well as Nengo Vieira on "Favela", American Dream showcases 12 tracks in keeping with Balli's signature sound while outshining his first offering by leaps and bounds.
