Acerca de The Wailers:
Bob Marley y los Wailers grabaron, giraron e hicieron historia juntos entre 1972 y 1981. Fue el propio Bob Marley quien solicitó que los Wailers permanecieran juntos. Hoy en día, la misión está a cargo de miembros legítimos, hijos de leyendas y una gran cantidad de músicos inmensamente talentosos. El mencionado Aston Barrett Jr ofrece ecos sorprendentes del sonido de batería de su tío (Carlton ‘Carly’ Barrett). El guitarrista Donald Kinsey se une a Wendel ‘Junior Jazz’ Ferraro, dando forma a ese clásico sonido. Josh David Barrett logra lo que parece imposible al calzar los zapatos de Bob Marley para proporcionar una voz principal realmente excelente. Owen ‘Dreadie’ Reid (Uprising Band de Julian Marley y un ex alumno de ‘Familyman’) y Andrés López (Albrosie, Lutan Fyah) agregan aún más calidad a una increíble formación que también incluye a Tyrone Downie el más joven de los primeros Wailers, al saxofonista Glen Dacosta y a Dennis Thompson, el ingeniero que ha estado desde los albores de la banda. Shema McGregor, hija de la cantante Judy Mowatt de las I Three y el pionero del reggae Freddie McGregor, se unen a Anne-Marie Thompson (una cantante de gospel de habilidad deslumbrante) y a Tamara Barnes, quien ha estado en la industria de la música durante más de 20 años, proporcionando coros en el estudio y en el escenario para I-Threes, Jimmy Cliff, Ky-Mani Marley, Beres Hammond y Freddie McGregor, entre muchos otros. Juntos, unen sus voces para aportar coros suaves y fluidos contribuyendo así a este crisol único, clásico y al mismo tiempo emocionantemente fresco.

About The Wailers:
Bob Marley and the Wailers recorded, toured and made history together between 1972 and 1981. It was Bob Marley himself that requested the Wailers stayed together. Today, carrying on the mission are legitimate members, children-of-legends and a host of immensely talented musicians.

Guitarist Donald Kinsey is joined by Wendel ‘Junior Jazz’ Ferraro, shaping that classic sonic identity.
