Thailand / Sweden — Following the buzz of his genre-bending hit “Where Is the Mr. Bartender”, reggae artist Mr. Hammer (real name Pierre Hammar) is back with a powerful new single: “The Songs of Courage”.
Rooted in conscious lyrics and classic reggae grooves, the track is a bold call to be brave rise, reflect, and reclaim inner strength in a world of increasing control and disconnection.
Now based in Thailand, Mr. Hammer draws inspiration from both global and local reggae traditions—blending the rootsy vibes of Peter Tosh and Burning Spear with the tropical rhythm and everyday soul of Thai reggae pioneers like Mocca Garden and Job2do. The result is a cross-cultural sound that feels fresh but familiar, personal yet universal.
“The Songs of Courage” combines hypnotic basslines, spiritual undertones, and poetic resistance:“Dem can track di steps we make, but never own di light we wake.”
It’s music for those walking through monitored streets, yet still daring to sing.
