Libation (2014) is the fourth album by Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars, following Radio Salone (2012).[1] It was produced by Canadian singer-songwriter Chris Velan, mixed by Iestyn Polson (known for his work with David Gray, Patti Smith, and David Bowie), and recorded at Lane Gibson Recording & Mastering in Charlotte, Vermont.[2] The album celebrates the band's 10-year anniversary with a "return to roots, specifically the acoustic "around the campfire" vibe of their earliest recordings."[3] Their sound combines elements of highlife, palm wine, maringa, baskeda and gumbe with modern dubstep and reggae.[4]
