On the 11th of May 1981 the profit and legend Bob Marley passed away, leaving behind a legacy to would only to continue to evolve and grow in importance and relevance, making Bob Marley one of the most well known artists in the world.
This legacy is carried on through his family, and musically, directly through his sons who firmly hold down the royal Marley name firmly.
"I am myself, I stay grounded, and do not think in the way that I am my father’s ‘shadow’ but instead that he is my inspiration, my teacher.” Julian states.

Julian, son of reggae legend Bob Marley, is a Grammy award nominated, roots-reggae musician, singer-songwriter, producer and humanitarian.

The tour will align with the annivesary of Bob's passing, the final show in Cairns falls on the anniversary date, and being the first ever Marley concert in the region, it is set to be a big one, local buzz is high!

Natalie will be joined by West Papuan freedom fighter sisters Lea & Petra Rumwaropen on backing vocals.
Natalie's vision for global equality, justice, world respect and preservation flows perfectly with the royal reggae legacy passed down by Bob Marley to his children, the message of one love and unity, as deeply felt through Julian's presence. “We must rise to the occasion to help our brothers and sisters in every way possible.” Julian urges.
