During a recent interview with Audio Ink Radio, P.O.D.’s Sonny Sandoval revealed that he recorded a solo reggae album back during the COVID-19 lockdown. However, he is “pretty much just sitting on it” at the moment.

Sandoval said the following:

“I had started a whole reggae album by myself when I was home, because you couldn’t go anywhere. So I just did it at home and teamed up with a lot of different producers just online. I would just see their stuff, and I’d be, like, ‘Hey, send me some tracks.’ I was able to do everything. So I had planned to release that, actually, two years ago now, but then because our label and everybody was, like, ‘We really, really need a P.O.D. record,’ all that stuff got put on the back burner.

I’ve always been a reggae fan. I love reggae music. I think the scene is probably bigger now than ever. There’s tours all around the world now for reggae music. And so I think once we’re finished with [the touring cycle for] this [new P.O.D.] record and it starts to wind down, I’m definitely…. I mean, I am gonna release either an EP or a full record. And then I would just love to play shows just locally and maybe jump on tour with some reggae bands just because I just love doing it.

I’m pretty much just sitting on it. And so now it’s, like, I just want people to hear that.”
