With the release of his debut album self-titled “Terry Linen,” this talented young man with the melodic voice made an indelible mark on lover’s rock music. And you think you’ve heard it all – just wait a little while longer - you ‘ain’t heard nothing yet’; cause Terry just completed his soon-to-be-released second album, working alongside the famed producer Anthony Red Rose – “doing the good thing all over again.” Love is really gonna come at yuh, twice the speed of lightnin’.
Terry Linen, was born Kiplin Simpson in a little district called Red Bank in the Parish of St. Elizabeth, Jamaica. Terry has been singing since he was thirteen years old, when his grandmother ‘discovered’ him. In 1993, he met Producer/Songwriter, Anthony Red Rose, who recorded Terry’s first single, “Rainbow Never Touched the Ground”. Since then, Red Roze Music has released several singles by Terry on the Raggedy Joe Label. Terry has toured North America and Japan (several times). With the release of his forthcoming album, you will get a chance to see a lot more of Terry, both on the road and in the videos.
In 1999, Terry Linen recorded a remake of Whitney Houston’s “My Love Is Your Love”. and his career took off with a fine start. The song stayed on the New York Reggae Charts at No. 1 for twelve weeks and twenty-eight weeks consecutively. That’s not to say that Terry is a newcomer to the business -- he has several songs to his credit -- “Love Is Coming At You,” (featuring Capleton); and “Show Me Oh Lord”, “”That’s The Way It Is,” “Where Do Broken Hearts Go” and “Call On A Friend,” to name a few.
Terry has just completed his second album and its worth it’s wait in ‘platinum.’ Again, Anthony Red Rose is at the helm. The first album was also produced by Anthony Red Rose and features a combination of various rhythms from reggae lover’s rock, culture and dancehall beats to pop and a little rap. The aim was to please a universal audience with Terry’s melodic voice, smooth sound and playful and inspiring lyrics. The new album features approximately fourteen tracks with mostly original tracks. He is also collaborating with artistes like Germany’s number one reggae artiste Gentleman, Red Rose, among others. The album will definitely make good listening for all the lover’s rock and dancehall fans, which already Terry has garnered a following. This one will definitely become a classic.
