TOOTS & THE MAYTALS
www.tootsandthemaytals.com
One of the brightest lights in Jamaican music for over 50 years, and still going strong. 'Sweet & Dandy', 'Pressure Drop', 'Time Tough', '54-46', 'Broadway Jungle', 'Funky Kingston'... the list goes on. Toots Hibbert remains a unique voice and an electric live performer.
LAID BLAK

Laid Blak have established a reputation as one of the foremost reggae bands in the country, and were recently voted the best reggae band in Northern Europe. Tracks like 'Red' and 'Bristol Love' have found their way onto national radio to become modern-day UK dancehall classics. Most recently, the patronage of Ed Sheeran has brought the 7-piece to their widest audience yet.
