Expertise

I can answer questions about the music, the artists, the instruments, vocal and recording techniques, and many other aspects. I'm not Ras Tafarian, but I understand the culture and I love the music. My key interests are Dub, female artists, the influence of blues, and titles that express love and family support.

Experience in the area

I've been playing lead guitar and studying music for over 40 years. I've never played in a Reggae band. However, I've been studying Reggae on and off since the 1970's. I spend about 1 or 2 hours a week studying Reggae and Dub.

Education/Credentials

I've paid my dues in the dance pit at The Wild Hair And Singing Armadillo Frog Sanctuary. Aside from that, I have a degree in Computer Science, and post graduate studies.

What do you like about this subject?

The chord structure is simple, but the harmony and personal touch added by the artists is inspiring.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I am working on my keyboard and bass skills.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Reggae artists tour, and perform in many cities.
