For the second year in a row, Ziggy and his band present a special evening honoring the biggest legends of reggae music, once again at the Hollywood Bowl on Sunday, July 15. Joining Ziggy this year are special guests Toots & The Maytals, Maxi Priest, Freddie McGregor, and Bob Andy.

The Grammy-winning Toots & The Maytals, led by Toots Hibbert, are considered preeminent legends of reggae music, with their unique combination of gospel, ska, soul, reggae and rock. Toots is also featured as a guest artist on Ziggy Marley's "Take Me to Jamaica," from the album Family Time, and joined Ziggy on the Bob Marley Roots Rock Reggae Festival in 2004.

England's own Maxi Priest rose to fame with his trans-Atlantic chart-topping hit "Close to You" in the early 1990s but he has been making reggae music for nearly 30 years, and with over 10 album releases, has been crowned the "King of Lovers Rock" and is one of the world's most successful reggae solo artists of all time . . .

From Ziggy: Next weekend Jan 21st 2012 I will play a benefit concert in Boulder Colorado USA for GMO Free Boulder. Genetically Modified Organisms are not something I would feed to myself or my children. The struggle for humanity today and in the years ahead is the struggle to remain free, and especially free from Genetically Modified Organisms as food. Without knowledge, information, choice and a say in society about our food and our land, our basic freedoms are denied. Our lives and our children's lives, the life of earth, plant and seed are today in our hands....(Click here to read more)

From Ziggy:Interesting 2012 so far. Africa keeps coming up on my mindar ( radar ) After posting on two great Africans i post on another with reason. The ANC ( Africa National Congress ) with the leadership of brother Nelson Mandela led the struggle against the ignoble apartheid regime in South Africa. The ANC celebrates it's 100th birthday today sunday the 8th. i will never forget the days of my youth hearing about the ANC in jamaica and feeling solidarity with the struggle and so wishing i could go there to join the struggle. So today we say Happy Birthday ANC and thank you for standing up for Africa. All the best Father Mandela. Jah Bless you

Is the sovereignty of individual states to be reduced if so by how much...... On these and other questions there is no agreement, and if we wait for agreed answers , generations hence matters will be little advanced, while the debate still rages..... The opponents of Africa's growth whose interest would be best served by a divided and balkanized continent..."
