Annual reggae-dub festival in honor of Bob Marley's birthday.
Клубные российские · 05.02.2004
The best representatives of the domestic roots and dub scene - the legendary Jah Division, the sunny 5'NIZZA, the flowing-vibrating Karibasys, as well as the best of the young reggae collectives selected after listening to demo recordings of groups from all over the country - 'VPR and Festival Vsyo Nasvetе' (Moscow) and 'Bazhinda behind enemy lines' (Samara). The festival's headliner is the cult band from England, Zion Train. Zion Train musicians took their name from one of Bob Marley's songs. Formed in 1991, the band consists of vocalist Molar, Cod (melodica), Tench (live dub specialist on turntables), Hake (trumpet), and Forkbeard (trombone). True fans of acid dub and reggae, they have released seven albums to date: 'Passage to Indica,' 'Natural Wonders of The Word of Dub,' 'Siren,' 'Homegrown Fantazy,' 'Grow Together,' and 'Love Revolution.' Their latest album, 'Original Sounds of the Zion,' released in 2002, received positive reviews in the music industry. In 2001, the musicians celebrated not only a decade of their own band but also the record label they founded, Universal Egg, created specifically to promote Zion Train. Zion Train is a true treasure trove of the dub genre. Their compositions of the last five years sound just as relevant, interesting, and fresh as recent releases. February 6, Friday, Gorbunov Palace of Culture; starts at 18:00.
