Orlando’s reggae-rock misfits Kash’d Out have never been afraid to stir the pot — but with their latest single “Mushroom Tea,” they’re not just stirring it. They’re sipping it. Teaming up with genre-bending duo Little Stranger, the band dives headfirst into a kaleidoscopic groove that feels like Sublime, Beck, and Hunter S. Thompson met up for a backyard jam session after a few too many sips of the track’s namesake.
That shift in perspective comes through loud and clear. The song opens with a warped guitar lick and a laid-back beat, laying the foundation for Shields’ airy vocals, which float above the mix like smoke curling through a sunbeam. Enter Little Stranger, whose signature alt-hip-hop delivery slides in like a hallucinogenic rabbit hole. “Mind bending, ear candy,” they rap, painting vivid pictures of a Technicolor inner voyage. It’s a sonic handshake between two of the most creative voices in the alt-reggae scene.
Produced with a touch of vintage analog haze and modern clarity, “Mushroom Tea” isn’t just a song — it’s a vibe. It’s the sound of a band who’ve come into their own, comfortable in weirdness, unafraid to expand their palette beyond the usual reggae-rock clichés. There’s no forced beach imagery, no fake patois — just genuine experimentation from a band that’s quietly built one of the most loyal followings in the scene.
Whether you’re microdosing or just mowing the lawn, “Mushroom Tea” is a blissed-out, sun-drenched reminder that sometimes the weird path is the one worth walking.
