(NEWARK, NJ) -- Celebrate reggae music and Rasta culture with reggae icons Luciano, Tony Rebel and Yaksta on Saturday, June 10, 2023 at 8:00pm at New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC).
A superstar in his native Jamaica, two-time GRAMMY® nominee Luciano combines his love of God and beauty into a soulful, spiritual blend of rock- and R&B-tinged reggae. He’s brought his contemplative style and Rastafarian approach to 25+ albums, including the GRAMMY® nominated A New Day and Zion Awake.
Reggae DJ Tony Rebel is cited by many as the first Rasta “singjay,” blending singing with traditional deejaying over dancehall riddims. His ‘90s hits include “Fresh Vegetable,” “Sweet Jamaica,” “Christian Soldiers” and “If Jah.” He hosts Rebel Salute, an immensely popular annual reggae festival in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica.
Kemaul M. Martin, professionally known as Yaksta, is a reggae and dancehall artist hailing from St. Mary, Jamaica. He became a global phenomenon with his hit singles “Home,” “Boogie Woogie,” “St. Mary,” “Humans” and “Ambition.” His latest releases include “Assets (Fowl Coop)” and “That Time Again.”
