Sean Bones of the band Sam Champion never fancied himself a reggae artist, but after the Frenchkiss label approached him about a solo record, Bones found himself fleshing out a few reggae tracks into last summer's Rings. This spring he dropped the single Rhumba Beat, which featured this upbeat track as its B-side. It's not reggae, but with its summery optimism, "Let's Do Somthin' Else" works great as fun, freewheeling guitar pop.
