Reggae Wednesday's Revisited: 1twotree



For the last three years, my boy Jeffa and his group 1twotree have been plugging the Santa Barbara scene with the best reggae music in town. Hands down.
On what's likely to be my last visit to Sandbar's Reggae Wednesday, I had to come check out 1twotree perform live before my move to San Francisco.
"We'll be up there soon," Mr. Vegas said after the show.
1twotree keeps crowds skankin' with a flurry of original hits like "Downtown", "Troy's song" and "Run" and also perform hit covers from UB40, Fiji and Pepper.
When not working with 1twotree, drummer Antoine Richardson and bassist/vocalist Gavin Thompson work alongside Andrew Bees of the internationally acclaimed Reggae group Black Uhuru.
Though the band resides in Santa Barbara, their musical diversity stems everywhere from the Hawaiian Islands, to the South American coast, to the shores of New Jersey.
For nothing but soulful, pure, unfiltered reggae, 1twotree gives it to you live and direct - from the roots up.

Check them out at 1twotree.com for new releases, bios and tour information.
