“Anything that sounds good is good,” says Stephen Marley, paraphrasing Duke Ellington. Don’t be surprised to hear the King of Reggae’s son referencing Harlem’s master of the jazz orchestra. Never one to limit his musical horizons, Stephen has always listened without prejudice, letting his inspiration set him free as a singer, songwriter, musician, and producer—whether collaborating with his illustrious musical family, or with Lauryn Hill, Nas, or Erykah Badu.
Beginning his lifelong musical journey at the age of six, Stephen shared historic stages with his legendary father and toured the world with his brother Ziggy and sisters Cedella and Sharon, The Melody Makers. The Tuff Gong instilled in all of his children a strict work ethic and an awareness that “music is way more than just music.”
Over the past 45 years, Stephen has won no fewer than eight Grammy Awards—three with The Melody Makers, twice as a producer of his younger brother Damian Marley, and three times as a solo artist. Every one of his solo projects to date has topped the Billboard Reggae charts. Stephen Marley’s place in music history is already secure. He does not really need to push the envelope, to defy expectations, to let the whole world into his world. And yet that is just what he’s decided to do.
Stephen Marley’s highly anticipated new single Old Soul just dropped on his birthday April 20, 2023; the first work off his new studio project in 5 years which is set to release later this year --and comes as a complete revelation and many new surprises.
Stephen is excited to bring another ‘Babylon By Bus’ Summer Tour on the road this summer!!

Following the demise of the family band Ziggy Marley & The Melody Makers, it was pretty clear that Stephen Marley was destined to break out and follow the music that he loves and is impassioned about. His solo discography was equally critically considered, his 2011 LP 'Revelation Pt. 1 – The Root of Life' picking up the Grammy Award for best reggae album.
Stephen has an instant fanbase from his days as part of the band, those who discovered him through solo releases and those who know he is the offspring of the late, great Bob Marley. There is no denying Stephen has inherited his father's vocal talent and likeable personality as he chats to his crowds on a refreshingly personal level between tracks. He discusses his life in depth, the influence of his father and talks passionately about the importance of music in the larger battle for overall peace and equality. He honours his father numerous times as his band cover the likes of 'Buffalo Soldier' and 'You Could Be Loved' with unmatched integrity. It is a great show conducted by a truly great musician and live band.

I saw him twice. Once in Baltimore with Slightly Stoopid?(sp) didn't stay for them, weren't there to see them. Stephen Marley didn't disappoint! Pier 6 in Baltimore, the atmosphere and someone I loved. Fantastic.. Covered a few of his father's songs which was an awesome surprise, but even better he introduced his son Jo Mersa Marley during that show and they rocked the house. Second was in Philadelphia at The Mann, during last year's Reggae in the park.. Along with a couple of his brother's and his son, nephew Skip Mersa. It's never a bad show when you're going to see Stephen Marley. You may just get an Irie surprise! You never know who you may see on stage or behind the scenes!

This was a fantastic show! Stephen Marley has such a wonderful stage presence. My friends and I had a blast! The Sunshine Theatre is a great venue.
My friends and were celebrating my Birthday and I had a wonderful time. I loved stephen's son waving the flag during the show, he was such a cutie and did such a great job. I also love how the backup singers got to sing a song.

He is so amazing in concert. He really interacts with the crowd. And he will play bongo drums sometimes too. I really love when he does one of his father's songs. And of course when he does a show with his brothers it is absolutely amazing. Also, I love that he always meets his fans and interacts with them after the show.
