After debuting in 1967 with the Jamaican group The Wildcats and recording early tracks with Coxsone Dodd, he moved to Canada, experimenting with various bands. He made a sensational return to Jamaica in the 1980s, working notably with Studio One, which gave rise to the legendary album Truth and Rights and its iconic title track. Later, he recorded the successful album Folly Ranking with King Jammy.

Though more discreet from the 1990s onward, he made an unforgettable return to the stage in 2012 with a festival tour, once again showcasing his legendary stage presence. At the same time, he remained relevant, collaborating with prominent artists of the era, such as Chinese Man on the track “Independent Music” and Major Lazer on “Jah No Partial.

In 2023, Johnny Osbourne marked his grand return with a new album! Produced by Baco Records and in close collaboration with musician Stepper, this project has won over reggae aficionados.

Her various journeys, from Kingston to New York, have brought her into contact with some of the greatest reggae musicians and producers, enriching her musical universe and her quest for authenticity. Her latest and fifth album, Shine, is the result of this journey. It embodies the vision and vibration Mo’ shares with her fellow artists, elevating the music to its pinnacle.

An adept of the “Do it yourself” approach, Broussaï’s musicians have naturally built their adventure on the path of independence and self-production. And even though several studio albums in their discography were voted “Best French Album” at the Victoires du Reggae awards in 2010, 2013 and 2016, Broussaï remains above all a live band. Very accessible, the complicity with the audience mixed with an explosive show is their trademark. The fervor that emanates from their performance cannot leave indifférent.

After their last album, which focused particularly on ecology, Broussaï will be releasing “Solidaires” in April 2023, a committed new chapter in their career on the theme of humanism. In today’s sombre context of climate upheaval, mass migration, pandemics and war, the band wants to highlight the hope of awareness and the need to unite to face up to these crucial issues.

From their streetwise beginnings to the biggest festivals, the band has established itself as one of France’s most talked-about acts. With nearly 1,000 dates to their credit, Broussaï’s live shows exude a contagious, infectious energy!

With four albums to her credit, including Hit Me With Music (2014) and Flowaz (2021), Sara continues to win over an international fan base with tours of Europe, North and Central America, and performances at prestigious festivals such as Rototom Sunsplash and iconic venues like the Olympia in Paris. In 2025, she embarks on a promising new tour.

Raspigaous is a festive and socially engaged group, with lyrics written by Lionel LEO Achenza, the band’s leader. Their songs portray social realities with humor, irony, and simplicity.

In 2005, they released Mauvaise Herbe, featuring equally addictive tracks like L’arapède, Chars & Soldats, and Bienvenue. This was followed by a national tour that solidified Raspigaous’ name across France. After an 8-year hiatus, Lionel LEO Achenza released a 4-track EP Haut & Fort with the powerful song 7 milliards et des poussières, recorded in Marseille.

In 2019, the band entered Studio K (13) to record Nouvel R, an album infused with groove and conscious lyrics.

In 2023, Raspigaous released their album 25 ans de live, a compilation of the band’s greatest hits in live versions.

In 2025, they will be back on stage for a final tour to celebrate their career.

As a songwriter, composer, and performer, Tomawok adapts to all types of riddims ranging from 70 to 180 BPM. His carefully crafted lyrics, rich rhymes, articulated words, and conscious messages, combined with his unmatched and precise delivery, make him an unmissable artist. The stage is his outlet, like a lion unleashed in an arena, electrified and energized by the symbiotic connection with his audience. Tomawok has also performed over 1300 concerts, both with the One Shot Band and in DJ sets, across the globe: France, China, Jamaica, Mali, Ivory Coast, Congo, India, Philippines, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Czech Republic, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, Lebanon, Mexico, Georgia, Germany, Réunion Island.

After dedicating himself in 2020 to creating and recording a new 12-track album, Road to Wisdom, set to be released in May 2022, Tomawok will surprise with a more conscious, sensitive, mature, and intimate approach, while still keeping the crowds dancing. The album’s themes have expanded, with the artist addressing topics such as climate change, animal rights, the joy of cooking, and his views on society, occasionally with a touch of humor.

Tomawok has chosen to collaborate, as always, with legends of Jamaican music, such as Capleton on the track Bun Dem Down and Chezidek on Me Kitchen, alongside icons of the French and Réunionnais scenes like Mesh and Mc Duc. With the same commitment to excellence and quality, the beat/riddim makers are French duo D&H and Polish producer Dreadsquad. The album was mainly recorded at Irie Ites Studio by Judi-k, with features recorded in Kingston at Capleton’s studio and in St. Mary with Chezidek. The album was mixed by D&H and then mastered by Scratch in Trinidad and Tobago.

On stage, his music unites the audience, sharing smiles, dance moves, and joy in unison, all under the captivating rhythm of his guitar. He is accompanied by his musicians, with whom he shares his motto: “Humility and Simplicity are the way of life.” Lidiop is a baye fall, and his way of life is defined by respect, love, and solidarity beyond religious, racial, sexist, and ideological divides.

Their sound universe is built around a dub foundation enriched with hip-hop rhythms, world music elements, and scratches, creating an explosive blend of reggae and stepper with an organic touch, accompanied by their signature instrument: the accordion. Between their homage to sound system culture and their nods to circus arts, they have collaborated with numerous and diverse artists (Panda Dub, Uzul, Luiza, Joe Pilgrim, Balaphonik Sound System, etc.).

They have hundreds of concerts behind them, notably in France, Réunion and Switzerland, and have released two CDs, Spread the Word (2014) and Timing is Critical (2017), in addition to the album Connecting…Please Wait available everywhere (Casamance, 2022). In 2024 they set up their own label, Bass Cookers, under which they release their productions, recorded and mixed by one of the pioneers of French Dub: Pilah (Dub Addict Sound System/KalyLive Dub). They also celebrate their tenth anniversary by organizing two editions of the “Alive DubFestival”, in France in October and in La Réunion in November.

A rare pearl that’s a must-listen, as it’s hard to find these days such sensitivity and finesse on such powerful riddims. Since her debut with Australian band Blue King Brown, NATTALI RIZE has toured Europe’s finest world stages (Summerjam, Germany’s biggest reggae festival, PALEO in Switzerland…), playing hits like “Rebel Love” (over 1 million views on Youtube).

She is enjoying tremendous success in the United States, where she is currently performing on some thirty dates, including the highly prestigious California Roots in Monterey, California. The young Australian is making a big impression and has definitely carved out a place for herself in the sometimes macho and violent world of reggae.

It’s a daily fight to rise above overly clichéd lyrics and assert a committed message.

Raised with traditional music and reggae from a young age, she gained recognition in the artistic world through maloya – a style of music, singing, and dance originating from Réunion – as a backing vocalist and percussionist in the band Saodaj’. Concerts and tours in various countries quickly professionalized her and allowed her to develop stage presence. With roots blending Africa and India, Nagaï now offers a unique volcanic reggae from the Indian Ocean, using the power of her music to convey a conscious message of universal love.

Transporting us to a serene and meditative atmosphere, Nagaï offers refined music that blends exhilarating rhythms, deep bass lines, and soaring high vocals. She transcends us with powerful rhythms for a performance full of breathtaking dynamism.

In October 2024, she will release her first EP, Back To My Roots (Kaboum Music), featuring 6 songs with 2 dub versions mixed by Roberto Sánchez, which she will soon present on stage during several tours in Europe and the Indian Ocean.
