Introducing the Reggae Revolution Festival!

Back in the summer of '94 I recall visiting a Southern California Bible bookstore and finding a delightful surprise on the music shelf: Christafari's "Reggae Worship" cassette. At the time, gospel reggae was such a unique concept and only a few artists were dabbling in island sounds and releasing them to an international audience.

I am sure that many initially thought Gospel Reggae was a novelty that would eventually go the way of Christian grunge, ska, or techno. They were wrong. Over fifteen years later, the genre is not only surviving, it's thriving! In fact, many would argue that the burgeoning sound of gospel reggae is currently stronger than its secular counterpart. With around a thousand gospel reggae artists worldwide, it may even be the fastest growing subgenre of Christian music.

Over the years more and more secular artists and producers like Papa San, Stitchie, Junior Tucker, Carlene Davis, Judy Mowatt, Twiggi, Danny Brownie, Tommy Cowan, Mr. Vegas and Chevelle Franklyn have switched over to the gospel side. Many mainstream artists like Luciano, Sanchez and Elephant Man are also trying to ride the gospel bandwagon while maintaining their secular careers.

However, Gospel reggae is far more than just reggae music with a positive message. This vibrant musical genre marries native Caribbean sounds with the good news of Jesus Christ. Gospel reggae invites participation, not just passivity; it demands a response. Through percolating rhythms, bouncy beats and inspired lyrics, these songs present a distinct clarion call to action -- an outcry of international artists challenging you to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, the true King of all Kings and beckoning you to worship before His throne. This is why we've started this festival.

At each event we will bring you the biggest and brightest in the genre, including many all-time top-selling artists. You will see more than great reggae musicians and singers playing excellent music onstage. Every single artist and musician performing has been forever transformed by the Spirit of God.
