Performer Information

Few bands in music history have left as indelible a mark on reggae as The Wailers. Formed in 1963 in Kingston, Jamaica by Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer, the group helped bring reggae to the world stage with their international breakthrough Catch a Fire (1973). With over 75 million albums sold worldwide (Bob Marley & the Wailers era) and the best-selling reggae album ever, Legend, moving over 25 million copies, their legacy runs deep—and The Wailers tour continues to draw fans across generations.

Their sound—deep basslines, offbeat guitar, soulful harmonies, and socially conscious lyrics—has influenced artists in reggae, pop, and rock. Bob Marley was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994, and the catalog now draws over 10 million monthly listeners on Spotify. The Wailers’ ongoing work, including the Grammy-nominated One World (2020), shows how their message of unity and resilience remains powerful.
