The Wailers
The band play a special set featuring incredible cuts from Bob Marley’s formidable back catalogue along with a string of their greatest, classic hits. The Wailers are giving you a chance to be part of the legacy. Aston Barrett Jr, himself reggae royalty as son of the irrepressible ‘Familyman’, carries the flame for The Wailers in a show that is simply not to be missed.
In late 2020, The Wailers released their first single off the album, “One World, One Prayer”, a powerful piece focused on unity, love and inclusion beyond cultural differences. Produced and written by Emilio Estefan, "One World, One Prayer", mixes Jamaican reggae with the sounds of the urban Latin genre. The track features international titan Farruko, Jamaican superstar Shaggy, and continues the legacy of Bob Marley alongside the great man’s daughter, Cedella Marley, and her son Skip Marley.
One World, the album that marks the Wailers' return to the recording studios and the band’s first album for 25 years, was nominated for a 2021 Grammy® Award in the Best Reggae Album category.
The essence of 70s rebellion, the true spirit of reggae performed by the people who helped forge the era-defining sound and by those raised under their tutelage. Living Legends, Reggae Royalty carrying the flame - now you can be a part of the legacy. When The Wailers come calling, you listen.

Bob Marley and the Wailers, Live Forever (2011)

Something Else!
By Nick DeRiso The aptly titled Live Forever, a newly released concert set by Bob Marley and the Wailers, doesn't sound anything like a man just moments away from the end. Instead, it underscores the indominable spirit of the singer and his song. Marley had collapsed while jogging in New York just two days before, on Sept. 21, 1980, but appeared for this sold-out date at the Stanley Theatre in Pittsburgh, Penn., anyway. Though it would become Marley's last concert ...

PRAISE JAH, IT'S BUNNY'S BIRTHDAY!
Though overshadowed by Bob Marley and Peter Tosh in the original Wailers, Bunny Wailer is a rasta gold to any reggae enthusiast, a true living legend that's shaped and defined the genre for over 40 years. Bunny turns 63 today and we feel blessed to have him still spreading sweet music long after many of the pioneers he stood shoulder-to-shoulder with have gone away.
