Australia is far from being a huge commercial success for reggae artist. None the less, the last few years has seen the likes of Luciano & Mikey General  (twice), Chakka Demus & Pliers, Jah Mason (twice), Junior Reid, Mykal Rose, Lady Saw, Bushman tour the counrty, paving the way in one of the few places where the music really has only an underground following.

Anthony B is now set to tour Australia in September. He is playing at a festival in Cairns called 'Reggaetown' & find himself in the unlikely position of being 3rd on the bill behind a New Zealand reggae band called Katchafire & Australian headlining roots, reggae act Blue King Brown (who have played Reggae On The River & SNMF.) He also hits all the major cities headlining his own shows, with other local artist, selectas & bands in support.

I for 1 am excitted about seeing Anthony B perform as he has a BIG repution for dazzeling live shows!!!
