THE REGGAE REVOLUTION BIO:
For the last 19 years, THE REGGAE REVOLUTION BAND have toured and worked with stars such as PATO BANTON, STING, UB40, STEEL PULSE, BERIS HAMMOND, LUCIANO and APACHE INDIAN. They released over 9 albums with PATO BANTON including the Grammy nominated LIFE IS A MIRACLE (TIME COME) album in 2000, as well as LIVE IN BRAZIL album in 1999, which both highlighted the strength and versatility of the band, that often incorporates not only Reggae rhythms,
but also RnB, Ska, Latin, Jazz and Soul tones. The band are famous not only for their excellent musical talents and songs, but for the highly choreographed shows. Headline slots have seen them performing & wowing audiences with their electrified performance as part of the WOMAD music festivals all over the world. They released their first self-titled debut album "THIS IS...THE REGGAE REVOLUTION" in Europe and the UK in 2001 on Prestige-Elite Records and features tracks written by members of the band. After successfully touring the world
from (2002 up to 2005/06) they decided to take time out to work on their second album, from which they produced a 6 track E.P entitled "PURE PROMISES" on zenith records, in the UK.
Having toured consistently in (2004/ 06) and taking part in the "Weisen Reggae festival" in Austria, they were then asked to perform on the Finale for The Womad festival in Reading UK, and Singapore. The band then teamed up with Apache Indian & Musical Youth to jointly do a "British Reggae Explosion Tour" of the USA in June/ July 2005, they then went on to tour the UK, Europe, & Asia. After successfully completing the tour Mikey & Steve of The Reggae Revolution went back into the studio to produce & Remix two tracks for Apache Indian, which was the "Isrealites" (featuring Desmond Dekker) & (Time for a Change) the title track of his new album. After working hard in the studio their second album entitled "GHETTO CRY" was
completed. The album has generated great interest from major labels throughout Europe, Brazil and the UK, and it has something for everyone weather its Reggae, RnB or even Jazz, it will make you move that's for sure. But there's only one way to find out, and that's by checking out the band live on their national & international world tours.
The Reggae Revolution has been working consistently in 2006 with Apache on a world tour, and other ventures sees some of them teaming up with a Fantastic UB40 tribute band called "JOHNNY2BAD" who have been exploding onto the UK Tribute scene.
