We know that they are high in demand in South Africa but we cannot say anything yet. Keep a lookout online and listen to the radio to hear who it will be.
"UB40 reunited" has myself, Astro and Mickey V. Fantastic drum and bass and a wicked brass section, 11 performers on stage. In my opinion, the hottest reggae band currently on the road!
The old band will never reform.
Musically, it would be going backwards.
The new album is completed. It's 100% reggae. Astro features on several tracks, the band are playing live and it's the best production I've done to date! I love it and I believe our fans will love it too.
Released soon!
Its working title has been "Rhythm Method", but that may change!
One big highlight was eventually coming to South Africa (after having upheld the cultural boycott) and playing to over 80 000 people in Johannesburg.
Since first coming to South Africa I've been on safari three times, "rode the rainbows" in a helicopter at Victoria Falls, sailed the Zambezi , taken the Blue Train around the Cape and thoroughly explored SA.
More tours, more music.
