***One of modern reggae's most dynamic live performers, SEEFARI has a reputation for being a unique artist who appeals to fans of all ages and
backgrounds. SEEFARI has headlined dozens of major reggae festivals and performed for hundreds of thousands of enthusiastic reggae fans across the USA. SEEFARI shows are legendary for their passion and excitement. Sojourner Tre of Clevelandreggae.com wrote of a recent SEEFARI show with Israel Vibration "SEEFARI was nothing short of a roots sound power."
SEEFARI continues to expand his fan base to an international level
with his latest CD "Rasta Italist". The disc has garnered rave reviews and heavy radio airplay in the USA, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and beyond. "Rootsman" a song from the CD, is featured on "Island Hoppers" TV (available internationally through the Sunsports channel.) SEEFARI's music has also been on numerous CD compilations and in feature films.
SEEFARI's energetic performance style and charismatic stage presence as well as his reverent, soulful interpretations of Bob Marley's music earned him a 4-year headlining spot on the National Bob Marley Festival Tour . SEEFARI's acclaim as a musical innovator has attracted outstanding musicians to seek him out. A seasoned veteran of stage and studio, SEEFARI has worked with musicians from around the world including studio work with legendary Jamaican producer/songwriter Anthony "Sangie" Davis (who worked with Bob Marley and Lee Perry). SEEFARI has shared the stage with many reggae legends including Toots & the Maytals, The Wailers, Israel Vibration, Steel Pulse, The Congos, Mikey Dread (who invited SEEFARI onstage to sing during his set) and even dancehall superstar Beenieman. He has been backed by some of the best reggae bands in the USA including bands from New Orleans, Chicago, Houston and Columbus. SEEFARI's own world-class reggae band (with horn section) features some of the best musicians in the USA.
With an ever-growing following as diverse as the international community and a live show like no other, SEEFARI is poised to pave the way for modern roots music in the 21st Century. His energetic stage presence and distinctive vocal style create a unique and exciting concert experience that always gets the crowd up on its feet. His sizzlin' hot band flexes roots, rub-a-dub and dancehall reggae with the ease of seasoned pros. SEEFARI works the crowd into a frenzy and always leaves them pumped up and screaming for more!
