google "The Ohms" they are a phenominal Reggae/Rock/Dancehall/Ska band from Cincinnati Ohio and they are on the rise.

they have played with Steel Pulse, SOJA, Pato Banton and many more and their vocals and message is very positive and uplifting

for fans of: Sublime, Slighty Stoopid, Pepper, Rebelution, SOJA, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Damian Marley, Sizzla, Operation Ivy, The Pilfers....ect

New to Ska, any recommendations to get started?

Bob Marley & the Wailers are essential, Buju Banton, Anthony B, Luciano, Lutan Fyah, Fanton Mojah are all crucial contemporary artists, or brand new artists like Konshens, I Octane, Romain Virgo are worth checkin.

Lot of reggae from outside Jamaica is on the rise like: Pressure Buss Pipe, Ras Attitude, NiyoRah, Midnite (group), or Dezarie are all from the U.S. Virhin Islands.

Ziggi, Maikal X, Cornadoon are european reggae artists and can't forget Gentleman the german reggae star

Also heard of new reggae/dub producers from Belfast, Northern Ireland, known as Country Hifi making reggae with a classic influence but quite a fresh sound.

You definitely need to check out female singer Rox's new song 'Rocksteady'. Rox is signed to Rough Trade Records and has released a self-titled album

For some reason, I don't have any reggae music, and when I heard Top Ten by Gregory Isaac, I asked myself, "Why?" I know Bob Marley and that's about it, I just want good music, easy listening. If you guys know of any instrumentals that would be great.

Get a 10ft Ganja Plant album and see what you think. Midnight Landing.

I have yet to listen to Midnight Landing, but I got the album Presents, I am loving it. Keep it coming, and more artists I should know about?
