Featuring an all star cast of musicians, members of the Roots Rock Reality Band combine decades of experience on the stage to create a powerful, vocally energetic, bass heavy, rhythmically entwined showcase of Bob Marley's catalog. The players have toured with and played for Burning Spear, the Meditations, Johnny Osbourne, Mystic Bowie's Talking Dreads, Junior Toots, Denroy Morgan (patriarch of Morgan Heritage), performed across Europe, Africa, and Japan (and JA). Fronted by Bridgeport's I Anbassa (CT best reggae artist 2012+2014) & Western MA's IanI Soultree (of the Alchemystics), the band has been delivering compelling renditions of Bob's music for some time.
