Event Description

Rootz Underground represents Jamaica’s most recent contribution to the International Reggae & World Music scene. While undeniably rooted in reggae the six-member outfit uses their collective passion to create a sound that pushes boundaries and defies being boxed into a single genre. Electric yet organic, gritty and soulful; the band manages to harness the essence that the reggae aficionado was captivated by in the 1970’s while connecting the youth to the pure messages of Rastafari with explosive live performances that are a positive and emotional musical journey.

Rootz Underground will be joined by Nanaimo's favourite Latin/funk party band BANANAFISH DANCE ORCHESTRA!

Tickets available shortly at Fascinating Rhythms, The Thirty Camel & Ticketweb.ca!

Venue

The Queens
34 Victoria Cres.
