Bio
Steel Pulse is a British roots reggae band from Birmingham, England. They were the first non-Jamaican act to win the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album for their 1986 album Babylon The Bandit.
Music Haven opened its first full season since 2019 with a bang, with headliners (and reggae superstars) Steel Pulse. The Nippertown crowd responded with a resounding “yes” to their life-affirming music.
When Bob Marley, the legendary reggae musician and spiritual leader of this Caribbean-based music, hit the UK and US charts in the 1970s, there was a wave of inspired Jamaican bands following on his popularity.
The oufit’s members – anchored consistently by vocalists David Hinds and Selwyn Brown, plus masterful keyboardist Sidney Mills – are veterans of their craft, delivering ample, uplifting hits spanning nearly four decades of rockin’ steady.
