The Wailers

In 2026, The Wailers celebrate 50 years of Rastaman Vibration with the tour 50 Years of Positive Vibrations, highlighting select cuts from Rastaman Vibration alongside timeless classics that continue to unite audiences across generations.

Released in 1976, Rastaman Vibration carried reggae’s message of resistance, spirituality, and hope onto the global stage. Songs from that album include:
- "Positive Vibration"
- "Roots, Rock, Reggae"
- "War"

Under the leadership of Aston Barrett Jr., son of legendary bassist Aston "Familyman" Barrett, The Wailers continue to honor their roots while carrying the music forward with purpose and authenticity. Joined by Mitchell Brunings, whose soulful vocals and commanding stage presence have captivated audiences worldwide, the band delivers performances that embody the enduring spirit of reggae.

Aston Barrett Jr. portrayed his father in the 2024 biopic Bob Marley: One Love, directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green and starring Kingsley Ben-Adir.

The band’s recent albums One World and Evolution — both Grammy-nominated — reaffirm the band’s creative vitality. Evolution, produced by Grammy Award-winner Emilio Estefan Jr. on Crescent Moon Records, blends classic roots reggae with contemporary global influences, with songs like "Love Should Be Free" resonating worldwide for their positive and socially conscious message.

Audiences can expect a setlist that weaves together the revolutionary spirit of Rastaman Vibration, the band’s classic anthems, and select modern highlights — all delivered with the same authenticity, musicianship, and heart that made The Wailers a cornerstone of global music.

50 Years of Positive Vibrations is more than a tour — it’s a celebration of music with meaning, a living connection between reggae’s golden era and its continuing power to inspire unity, resilience, and hope.
