DAMIAN “JR. GONG” MARLEY, a multi-Grammy-winning Jamaican talent and the youngest son of the legendary Bob Marley, has forged a unique musical path.
Blending reggae with hip-hop, R&B, and rock, he made history as the first reggae artist to win a Grammy outside the genre. His breakthrough album, “Welcome To Jamrock,” clinched two Grammys for Best Reggae Album, and the Best Urban/Alternative Performance for the title track, which was also declared the best reggae song of the decade by The New York Times.
Collaborations with Nas and Skrillex, notably the platinum-selling “Make It Bun Dem,” showcase Marley’s diverse musical prowess. Rolling Stone hailed “Make It Bun Dem” as a monster mash-up of dubstep and dancehall.”
“Stony Hill,” his fourth studio album, secured another Grammy, followed by “The Kalling,” winning Best Reggae Album at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards.

Eight-time GRAMMY Award-winning international recording artist, STEPHEN MARLEY is never one to limit his musical horizons. He lets inspiration set him free as a singer, songwriter, musician, and producer – whether collaborating with his own illustrious musical family or with the likes of Lauryn Hill, Pitbull, Shaggy, Nas, Erykah Badu, amongst many others. His most recent album Old Soul was an acoustic revelation when it was released in September 2023 via Tuff Gong Collective/UMe/Ghetto Youths International. Old Soul explores a musical palette that spans a variety of cultures and genres alike, with hand-selected special guests including Bob Weir, Eric Clapton, Jack Johnson, Ziggy Marley, Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley, Buju Banton, and Slightly Stoopid, furthering the spiritual journey that encompasses the record’s 14 tracks. While Old Soul showcased Ragga’s versatility, the message within the music remains consistent. “We come to free the people’s minds,” says Stephen. “Only way you can free your soul is to free your mind. My father say, ‘No chains on my feet, but I’m not free.’ And then he come say,‘Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery.’ Anywhere the music calls us, we are going to be there to spread the message of love and unity.”

FEATURING MICHAEL GLABICKI OF RUSTED ROOT
Michael Glabicki, lead singer, songwriter and guitarist for Rusted Root fuses musical mastery and shamanic inspiration into his music and live performances. In his most prolific period to date Glabicki is focusing his energy on his new band, The UPROOTED Band, to carry on the legacy of Rusted Root’s energetic music while recording new music.
“Uprooted has masterfully expanded the landscape of the older Rusted Root songs and created a new intuitive and magnetic vision of the material” says Glabicki, “These inspired performances not only energize and expand the hearts of the crowds but also show us how to take the new music to the next level”.
Rusted Root, led by Glabicki, built their career around dramatic performances; their polyrhythmic, multicultural rock-and-soul picked up fans like a junkyard magnet as they swept across the nation on tour. Glabicki continues to keep this tradition alive through his new project, The Uprooted Band.

With Dirk Miller on guitar and vocals, Ricky Petraglia on drums, Keaton Thandi on percussion, Erik Kramer on bass and Daisie Ghost Flower and Emily Victoria on background vocals, The Uprooted Band is a liberating project for Glabicki. He says “I looked to the past and imagined where I wanted to go and realized this band is the perfect vehicle to take me there.” This tour will focus on the energy and excitement Rusted Root brought to all of their fans, and keep the spirit of the music moving forward.
Born and raised on the West Coast and influenced heavily by his Polynesian upbringing, J BOOG is undoubtedly one of the top reggae singers in recent years. Mentored by island reggae icon Fiji, he fine tuned his sound and style creating a unique blend that transcends across continents.
Early on in his career, a chance encounter led J Boog to connect with Yami Bolo and Gramps Morgan, which then took him to Jamaica where the reggae singer found himself working in the historical studios of Bob Marley, Don Corleon, Bobby Digitals, Shaggy, and Sugar Minott.

The popular track currently boasts over 75m views on YouTube and continues to chart on the iTunes reggae chart even today. A year after its release though, Backyard Boogie earned J Boog the Best Entertainer at the International Reggae and World Music Awards in Chicago. Wash House Ting was released in 2016 and featured tracks with veteran reggae band Morgan Heritage as well as dancehall legend Buju Banton. The album topped Billboard Reggae Album Charts and was later nominated for Best Reggae Album at the 2018 Grammy Awards. His EP Rose Petals was nominated for Best Reggae Album of the Year at the 2017 Grammy Awards and also topped US Billboard and iTunes Reggae Charts. J Boog’s repertoire boasts tracks with Soja, Iration, Tarrus Riley, The Green, Fiji, Chaka Demus, Richie Spice and more.
He has toured all over the world, including Europe, Africa, Dubai, New Zealand, Australia, Japan and of course across the US. He’s performed at festivals like Cali Roots, One Love NZ, Good Love, Reggae Rise Up, One Love Cali, Arizona Roots, Dry Diggings, and the Mayjah Rayjah to name a few.
