The Wailers announce Australian tour for this April

Performing songs from Bob Marley’s album ‘Legend’ as well as other classics from the king of reggae’s back catalogue

The Wailers

 

Announcing living legends, The Wailers will set off on tour directly after their Bluesfest performance in Byron Bay this Easter. Performing songs from Legend, the best-selling reggae album ever, and the second longest charting album spending 992 weeks on the Billboard Chart, the Wailers will perform other Bob Marley classics in what will be a celebration of the music and life of Bob Marley.

The Wailers conjure the spirit of reggae and the essence of the 70s rebellion performed by the people who helped forge the era-defining sound and by those raised under their tutelage.

Featuring  a stunning line-up of genuine reggae royalty – including heir to the throne, Aston Barrett Jr (son of the legendary ‘Familyman’), keyboardist Tyrone Downie, and Saxophonist Glen DaCosta; with Josh David Barrett achieving the seemingly impossible by stepping into Bob Marley’s shoes on lead vocal. Experience a real slice of musical history and heritage from those who keep the flame of Bob Marley burning strong. When The Wailers come calling, you listen.

Experience a real slice of musical history and heritage from those who keep the flame of Bob Marley burning strong this April.
