He's been associated over the years with the 'who's who' in reggae and currently manages the European business of DON CARLOS, and also EVERTON BLENDER and manages the affairs outside of South Africa for Lucky Dube's daughter NKULEE DUBE and her band, Mark is the Managing Director of 'Babylon By Jet' .. THE "TOSH Meets MARLEY TOUR". The closest thing to Bob Marley & Peter Tosh live anyone will ever get again! .. .. .. ....Lucky Dube's daughter NKULEE DUBE:...... "Nkulee Dube" and her band rose from the ashes of pain caused by the tragic passing of her talented and charismatic father Lucky Dube in October 2007. Stepping up to the microphone is the amiable and charming Nkulee Dube, and she is doing a remarkable job bringing Lucky Dube's prophetic words to local audiences who have suddenly developed an insatiable appetite for the tunes, devouring each word and nuance. The band has now performed in numerous major festivals in South Africa receiving standing ovations with each performance. The 10-piece band has been rocking audiences with the sounds that have made South Africa's reggae king Lucky Dube a star around the world. Who are they? Gabriel Stuurman ~ Keyboards, Bafana Khuzwayo ~ Keyboards, Nhlanhla Vilakzai ~ Lead Guitar, Khola Ezekiel Phalatse ~ Bass Guitar Bethuel Mbonani ~ Drums, Bongi Mhlanhla ~ Vocals, Siziwe Rejoice Ngema ~ Vocals Coming your way soon, NKULEE DUBE and the Lucky Dube Celebration Tour is one show not to be missed. The real sound of Lucky Dube and South Africa moves you, grooves you, loves you even more….. } .. .. ...DON CARLOS:...... Don Carlos (born Euvin Spencer), Legendary Reggae Artist - Born and raised in one of the most deprived regions of Western Kingston, Jamaica. A district notoriously known as Waterhouse, which incidentally is also the musical spawning ground for many of Reggae's greatest ever talents, such as King Tubby, Black Uhuru, The Jays, Junior Reid, and King Jammy, to name a few. Don Carlos started his singing career in 1965 in conjunction with other artists and quickly moved on to creating solo singles. In 1972, Don moved into a trio as one of the original contributors of Black Uhuru, alongside other founding members, Garth Dennis who later went on to joining the Wailing Souls, and Derrick Ducky Simpson. Two years after the trio's groundbreaking debut, the group split in different directions and Don continued to pursue a solo career .. .. .. .. ....Jawge Hughes:...... Jawge Hughes is a native of the tropical isle of St. Thomas and his fantastic personality and prowess ..boards allowed him to have toured with many well-known reggae musicians. His talent is a long musical exploration, from Upfull Ska sounds, Dance hall rhythms, Fusion Reggae to the deadly one-drop Roots Reggae style. A level of talent that one would expect from the best brings a wealth of experience to the Tosh Meets Marley Tour. Jawge says, 'I always try to be adventurous with music. Keeping it simple, but there is always some challenging surprises in it." .. .. ....Vince Black:...... Former Black Uhuru member and now lead guitarist with the Tosh meets Marley Tour, Vince has joined this new tour, which appear as 'colors on a canvas' that he compares to classical painting. Vince works his music, experiments with it, dissects it and expects a lot of himself. His warm and sensual guitar adds a touch of realism to the Tosh meets Marley material he warmly refers to as 'a tribute to one of reggae's all time greatest souls'. .. ....Claudio Peppe:...... An original 'native' from Brazil, Claudio "PEPPE" started his music career early, listening to all the Bob Marley music he could locate. "Peppe" has played with many world famous musicians such as Jimmy Cliff, the Wailers, Julian and Damian Marley among others. Now Peppe bring his talent to the amazing TOSH meets Marley Tour. One of the most proficient percussionists on the planet, 'Peppe' is a joy to watch in action and audiences love his music. .. .. ....Karl Wright:...... One of the most talented and experienced drummers to have ever raised a stick against a drum skin and cymbals, Karl Wright began a lasting career at a very early age and is not only one of the most proficient stickmen in the world today but also has the God-given ability to sing like an Angel which he does faithfully. "Sticking" to his craft and practicing faithfully has proved very successful for him, having led him to stints with many famous bands such as the Maxi Priest Band and has performed and toured with many top reggae artist including Dennis Brown, Culture, Marcia Griffiths, Gregory Isaacs, Freddie McGregor, Sugar Minot, Eek A Mouse, Nahki, Shabba Ranks, Junior Reid, Shaggy, and Super Cat. .. .. .. ....BRINSLEY (founder of ASWAD)...... Brinsley is an accomplished Actor, Song Writer,Director, Radio & TV Broadcaster Singer and Performer. Said to be the first black child star on British television, in the well loved role of Spring in the TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX TV series, "HERE COME THE DOUBLE DECKERS" which aired on Saturday mornings in the US. Brinsley went on to star in film and television roles before finding global success as a musician and founding member or the chart topping band, ASWAD Brinsley fronted the British reggae group, ASWAD (signed to ISLAND records,CBS UK and SONY JAPAN). Twice nominated for Grammy awards, ASWAD scored PLATINUM ALBUM SALES and a number of chart successes including Give A Little Love, On and On, Next to You, Shine and number one chart hit with "Don't Turn Around". ACE OF BASS included an Aswad mix in their cover that topped the US charts. UK favorite CLIFF RICHARDS personally requested ASWAD as one of the producers of his 100th single and to be a guest at his record breaking show THE EVENT, in Wembley Stadium. His command of the stage made ASWAD first choice to headlined countless international tours, which including a performances for Princess Diana, the massive Rock in Rio festival and for Nelson Mandel at his 70th Birthday concert celebration. Brinsley is currently back in the recording studio in Jamaica recording his new solo album produced by Reggae's premier Riddim duo Sly and Robbie. And coming very soon, the release of his collaboration with the man behind "Police in Dub", the remarkable Guido Craveiro .. .. ....TRiBO dE JAH:...... Once upon a time not so very long ago, a group of young men met each other deep in the wilds of Brazil at the Maranhão School for the Blind. Four of them totally without any sight, the fifth only partially seeing. Their mutual love of music brought them together, and they began to develop their love and passion for music by creating instruments whenever they could and by discovering the tunes that floated in their heads and all around them everyday. After long, hard, and constant practice they became proficient enough to begin playing at popular dances, playing their own particular brand of Brazilian rhythms like 'serensta' and 'lambada' until one day they discovered the heartbeating rhythm of 'Reggae'. The music of TRIBO DE JAH transcends all borders and appeals to the world-at-large, with songs written and performed in English, Portuguese, French and Spanish. .. .. ....EVERTON BLENDER:...... One of the few Jamaican singers to truly bridge the gap between the roots and dancehall reggae styles is the man known as Everton "Blender." When reggae fans hear the opening notes of "Lift Up Your Head," "Ghetto People Song," "Blend Dem," etc., they instantly recognize these songs as the cultural anthems of our time. The large number of hits Everton has accrued is most impressive for an artist who has been in the business for such a seemingly short period of time.. .. .. ..in specially created circumstances.....Bob Marley's Junior Marvin:...... It has been almost a remarkable thirty-six years since an ambitious Robert Nesta Marley (AKA BOB MARLEY) and a group of his close friends formed a singing group called the Wailing Wailers. Following the break-up of that first formative group, Bob Marley went on to put together his own band in 1977 called "Bob Marley & the Wailers" In 1976 while Bob Marley was preparing to do the SMILE JAMAICA concert, an attempt was made on Marley's life. He swiftly fled Jamaica to England and without a lead guitarist. Junior was at this time, Chris Blackwell's golden musician in London. Chris introduced Junior to Bob Marley on Valentines Day, February 14th 1977. The rest is history. Junior Marvin is now pleased to announce he is launching his own long-awaited solo career. Marvin, award winning vocalist and guitarist for "Bob Marley & the Wailers", the most famous reggae group in the world is moving and grooving. And he has made it perfectly clear that he is willing to do whatever it takes to continue on the path he chose over two decades ago. The statement symbolizes the dedication he has to the music and his fans. Junior has also just finished up his project of a lifetime album entitled "Wailin' for Love". .. "BABYLON by JET & The Tosh Meets Marley Tour" Coming your way very soon…… .. .. .. ....MAMADOU DIOP:...... Led by the irresistible energy of master West African rhythm guitarist and drummer Mamadou Diop, MAMADOU presents a world-class cultural experience. The sound is a guitar and drum led groove that includes the rhythms of high-life, juju, rumba, samba, salsa, and reggae blended with authentic Senegalese ethnic rhythms. Though MAMADOU's songs are sung in several languages, the language of music is universal and every audience they perform for instantly understands and reacts with joyous dance. .. .. ..Contact:.. ..
