Witness two of the most legendary reggae artist, U Roy & Junior Murvin on stage live together for a one off special performance that’s not to be missed!

Originally born named 'Ewart', U Roy got his famous name from a young family member who couldn't pronounce Ewart and the nickname stuck. Known as the Originator, U-Roy wasn't the first DJ, nor even the first to cut a record, but with a career now spanning over 5 decades, he is a legend indeed. He was the first to shake the Jamaican nation and he originated a style so distinctly unique by DJing over old record cuts, that he single-handedly changed Jamaica's music scene forever.

Junior Murvin achieved fame as the falsetto singer of "Police And Thieves" which was an international hit for him and innovative reggae production artiste Lee "Scratch" Perry. The song has been covered by artists as diverse as The Clash and Boy George, and he has maintained his profile over twenty years after it was made. In the dancehalls Junior Murvin has scored with hits: the ultra easy skank of "Miss Kushie", the seminal "Cool Out Son", and others like "I'm In Love", "Bad Man Posse" and "Muggers In The Street"; releasing enough material to maintain his reputation, without ever flooding the market. In late 1998 London-based Dubwise Productions were visiting Port Antonio in Jamaica where they were introduced to Junior Murvin. This led to the recording of the solid "Wise Man", currently available on a 10" single.
