It is befitting that on a most significant day of Reggae Month and on the birth day of legendary icon Bob Marley, Morgan Heritage exemplified the resilience and timeless quality of reggae music as they opened up their set with the classic hit single “Tell Me How Come”. The jubilant crowd sang along as the siblings belted tune after tune effortlessly while encompassing soul and reggae grooves into their flexuous rhythmic patterns and melodic arrangements.
“As always, Morgan Heritage came out strong! The smooth sexy voices rocked the crowd. They threw it back to the days of Toots and Maytals and educated the crowd with reggae history, remembering more than just Bob & Dennis, but the greats that have left us too soon with classics even outside the reggae gendre. Like Michael Jackson and the legendary Bunny Ruggs of Third World. Time after time, Morgan Heritage consistently brings it to the stage and seeing Jemere for the first time as he touched the stage guaranteeing the legacy will continue!!” stated concert goer and reggae enthusiast Suzanne Karam
