Reggae music is so much better live and for those of us too young to experience a live Bob Marley show, Ziggy is as close as we will get.
When everyone comes on stage, you can see the massive extent of Ziggy’s band. There are two organists/keyboard players, two guitar players (not including Ziggy), two drummers, two female backup singers, and a bassist. Extra percussion instruments are scattered about, as well.
A hallmark of a Ziggy concert is the attention to detail. Thematic implications, shifts in tempo and mood, plus doses of audience interaction all populate his performances, buttressed by a band that bops, one-drops, and locks down the sunny and talented sound reggae music is known for.
It's the sound that can pull you away from a bad day or help you navigate a gnarly commute safely or put you in a great mood anytime. His shows stretch out like the Wailers used to do while taking all of the advice of Dad’s “Jamming” to heart.
What else would be expected from Bob Marley’s eldest son? Ziggy’s roots are deep, indeed. Mighty tree, mighty seeds.
