Music pioneers to ‘rocksteady’ together
The legends of rocksteady will come to life in the new feature film Get Rock to Rocksteady: the Roots of Reggae.
The 1960s was a decade of great musical creation in Jamaica. It was a time when the political, social and cultural fabric of the country was transformed. Producing hits such as No No No, The Tide Is High and By The Rivers of Babylon, rocksteady propelled Jamaica to the top of the world. The new film, Get Rock to Rocksteady: the Roots of Reggae, explores this turbulent era as it was experienced by the singers and musicians of the rocksteady genre.
