REGGAE: Roots Reggae, WORLD: World Beat



Details:
WATUSI is the hot, legendary, tropical "Reggae/World Beat" band in Texas.
A seed from Jamaica, and the great Peter Tosh, planted in Dallas in 1982, has thrived and spread this band and their music across America, from the Caribbean to Hawaii and 104 countries around the world!
Inspired by the late Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, all the reggae legends, and Fela, Baaba Maal, Youssou N'dour and the great Afrikan musicians, as well as soca, salsa, jazz and other crossover artists as Stevie Wonder, Sting, Police, Talking Heads, Peter Gabriel, and so many more, Watusi takes the flavas and makes it their own.
Charter members of Reggae Ambassadors Worldwide (R.A.W.) and one of the premier and most established REGGAE bands in America, they are world musicians coming from the Caribbean, U.S.A. and Africa, joining cultures, riddims and music together in a spirit of international unity, with a "One World" message and rhythm-World Beat!

2007 celebrates 25 years of WATUSI and the release of their latest CD, "Cool Runner" on World Beatnik Records. The CD shows a diversity of styles: REGGAE-Roots to Dancehall, Soca, Zouk, African & Hawaiian, all in a World Beat vibe. ONE LOVE !
