Marley B-day Bash featuring The Big Takeover w/ Wheel Out & Selector D
Traditionalists or progressives? Fronted by the charismatic Jamaican-born singer and songwriter Nee Nee Rushie, the seven-piece New York band The Big Takeover plays original music that is rooted in and reverent toward the genres and rhythms of Jamaican pop: reggae, rocksteady, ska. They are devotees of Desmond Dekker and the way the old school did it. At the same time, The Big Takeover crosses lines and blends traditions like global pop fusionists. Their deceptively complex arrangements and big hooks connect with the spirit of Motown and the uptown sophistication of the 21st century retro soul and R&B revival scene.
The room is alive with rhythm. Passionate lyrics come from Roosta, the veteran Jamaican frontman. Deep reggae grooves. Hip-hop vibes with a twist of jazz and pounding funk bass. Music that arouses you to dance. A vibe so deep that powers across cultures and across oceans. This is Wheel Out!
Radio Free Brattleboro pioneer Selector D will man the tables to keep the house moving between sets.
