Jamaican reggae artist and recent Grammy Award winner, Kabaka Pyramid has been taking Europe by storm with his latest album ‘The Kalling’, produced by Damian Marley. The demand for Kabaka’s music has been met with an impressive series of sold-out shows throughout the continent of Europe. Commenced in February, the tour features Kabaka Pyramid and his band the Bebble Rockers, who have been at it non-stop, captivating fans with a riveting ninety-minute performance.
“It’s been amazing taking “The Kalling” on the road and seeing the response it’s getting,” said Kabaka. “Touring has been one of the greatest outlets to help me grow my platform so my words and works can have a listening impact on humanity as a whole.”
Kabaka’s European tour has hit cities throughout the continent, including Brussels, Berlin, Munich, Paris and Vienne, just to name a few. The tour will wrap up on April 10th in London, UK to another sold out show.
However, Kabaka will continue to spread his music and message with a U.S. tour planned for later this year.
‘The Kalling’ is Kabaka’s second full-length album and features 15 tracks that perfectly showcase his sound and message. Produced by Damian “Jr Gong” Marley, the fifteen-track masterpiece features some frequent collaborators like Damian Marley, Protoje, Black Am I, Jesse Royal, as well as new collaborators like the legendary Buju Banton and Stephen Marley. His sophomore album (following debut ‘Kontraband’), ‘The Kalling’ is a symphony of high-level contemporary reggae, which speaks to the listener on the highest of planes, the clearest most accurate musical statement about the evolution of his craft.
