Roots Rock Reality/Bob Marley Tribute

After heating up the Barn on the coldest night of the year this past February, & again in the early summer heat, The Roots Rock Reality Band return to Egremont for a 3rd time this year.  I Anbassa, Ian I Soultree and the crew will be performing Bob Marley's final album, Uprising, in its entirety as well as a special second set featuring Marley family gems & original tracks.  Whether or not he knew his time was coming to a close, his final musical statement was an album freighted with incredible emotional resonance, a deep and serious collection of songs that explored fire and brimstone themes of sin and salvation.The members of this all-star ensemble perform and have performed with a veritable who's who of reggae greats, including the Burning Spear, Sister Nancy, Mykal Rose, Johnny Osbourne, Luciano & Denroy Morgan as well as holding their own respective projects in the Northeast circuit.
