FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - SAN FRANCISCO, CA



THREE DAY REGGAE FESTIVAL IN FEBRUARY WITH WAILERS, SLY AND ROBBIE, ELEPHANT

MAN AND MANY MORE AT THE WARFIELD -- IN CELEBRATION OF BOB MARLEY1S

BIRTHDAY



Moss Jacobs Presents, in conjunction with Raggamuffins Productions and Clear

Channel, proudly present the 23rd Annual Bob Marley Day Festival at The

Warfield in San Francisco on February 20, 21 and 22. Each night, the doors

open at 7:00 p.m. and the music starts at 8:00 p.m. and tickets are only $30

per

night. Regarded as one of the premier reggae festivals in California each

year, this event features top international reggae artists with the best of

dancehall, roots, and vintage performers. The festival also celebrates

Black History Month in tribute to those before us and the legacy of Bob

Marley, one of the world's most influential music legends.



The line-up is as follows: On Friday, February 20 catch reggae-rhythm twins,

still going strong after 25 years, Sly & Robbie & the Taxi Connection

featuring Blufox, Rahman, Myrhdak & Mahlon Stewart. Also on the opening

night bill is reggae phenomenon Big Youth who is returning to the west coast

after a long hiatus, and opening the show is the Bay Area1s premier 11-piece

reggae orchestra - Soul Majestic featuring Rastan Campbell.



On Saturday, February 21, Elephant Man known as the 3Punk Rock of

Dancehall", will bring on a different flavor with his out-of-control and

highly entertaining show. And no Bob Marley festival would be complete

without one of Bob1s offspring; Julian Marley is a gifted artist in his own

right and has made a name for himself through his music. Pepper will open

the show on Saturday. Hailing from the Hawaiian islands, they gained a

reputation for explosive live performances with island reggae and edgy

guitar; Pepper will catch the attention of fans during this festival.



At the final show on Sunday, February 22, The Wailers, featuring Aston

3Familyman2 Barret will headline. Current day favorites, Midnite who have

taken the reggae scene by storm bring their raw and rootsy St. Croix sound

to San Francisco, and warming up the crowd, are local roots favorites,

Groundation. This line-up is subject to change.
