Concert Reggae 4 Japan gets new date



SUNDAY, June 5 is the new date for the Reggae 4 Japan benefit concert to be held at York College in Queens, New York.

The organisers, in addition to securing the date, have announced a line-up featuring leading reggae artistes including Maxi Priest, Freddie McGregor and the Big Ship Family, Capleton, Tarrus Riley, Gramps Morgan, Peter Morgan, Alaine, Tanya Stephens, and Etana, all backed by the Ruff Kutt band.

It has also been announced that additional acts are being confirmed, in order to make the event more meaningful. Since the announcement of Reggae 4 Japan more than two weeks ago, to rally the reggae community in support of Japan's earthquake relief, the organisers are reporting an overwhelming level of enthusiasm.

International reggae singer Maxi Priest said, "Japan is like home and family, as I have been going to Japan since the mid-80s... I have a lot of close friends in Japan and know people who are directly affected by the disaster. Japan has done a lot for the reggae industry, so I am unquestionably involved with Reggae 4 Japan because of my connection and for the sheer love of humanity."

"In this life, it's all about helping each other... when one is in trouble you reach out and help," said Masta Simon, co-owner of Mighty Crown. "I am forever grateful for the support of the reggae community in this effort... with such a great need for relief in Japan, I am calling out to all people to help. Regardless of one's connection to Japan be it reggae music, electronics, automotive, fashion, etc."
