On August 14th, we’re partnering with the People’s Festival, Tribute to Bob Marley to celebrate its legacy of arts and culture. Join us for the ultimate Sculpture garden Happy Hour featuring music from Spokey Speaky and DJ Jb. Hosted by Chandra Pitts. Be sure to stop by the The People’s Festival food station.
Spokey Speaky: A band out of Wilmington, DE that aims to spread the positive vibes of reggae music through its soulful, high energy live performances. Playing a wide range of reggae classics from the old school to the new, the goal of the members is to sastify and entertain reggae fans, while enlightening those who may not have been exposed to the genre otherwise. We have had the honor of opening for many of reggae’s living legends including Toots & The Maytals, Jimmy Cliff, The Wailers, Barrington Levy, Beres Hammond, Luciano, Ky-Mani Marley, Easy Star All-Stars, Sister Carol, I-Wayne, The Green, Giant Panda Guerrilla Dub Squad, KRS-One and many more. We have also had the honor of being the local reggae representatives at Wilmington’s own People’s Festival: A Tribute to Bob Marley for five years running. With an emphasis on emotion and musicianship, Spokey Speaky delivers a live performance that refuses to be ignored and simply cannot be replicated.
DJ JB: Prez Intl was born in Maypen, Parish Clarendon Jamaica and raised in the states. DJ JB specializes in playing many genres of music such as reggae, dancehall, hip hop, Afro beats and R&B. Prez Intl is the official DJ for the People’s Festival.
Our Happy Hours are always free to attend—and we gladly accept donations to help keep the good vibes going! Interested in getting more involved?
