After the members took some time away from music, Link & Chain reconnected to create six new sunny soundscapes on their latest EP entitled Fix the Roof.

Fix The Roof has been getting positive responses & massive airplay and streams. The EP contains an array of catchy, hook-laden tracks that elicit messages of peace, love and hope. The six compositions display a theme of strength and unity, just as Link & Chain itself does within its members.
