Reggae icons The Wailers are set to hit these shores in a week or two, for their biggest UK tour to date, where they will play ‘Legend’ in it’s entirety.
Formed in 1969 with Bob Marley at the helm, The Wailers set out on an odyssey to promote Rastafarian ideals of peace, love and equality through the power of reggae. It’s estimated that they have played infront of 24 million people over the years,originally with the late great Bob Marley followed by the likes of Sting, The Fugees, Stevie Wonder and Carlos Santana as well as reggae legends, Pete Tosh, Bunny Wailer and Burning Spear. They’ve sold in excess of 250 million albums worldwide, with ‘Legend’ been not only theirs, but also the best selling reggae album of all time.
