Renowned as a true kingpin of the roots-reggae scene, Horace Andy stands as a towering figure in the global reggae community. His name is synonymous with the genre’s golden era, yet he continues to shape and define it well into the 21st century.
With the release of his critically acclaimed 2022 album Midnight Rockers, which received a remarkable five-star review from The Guardian, Andy reaffirmed his enduring relevance and creative vitality. That same year, he was invited to perform on NPR Music’s iconic Tiny Desk series, a testament to his cross-generational appeal and global influence.
Over the course of more than five decades, Horace Andy has built a legacy as one of Jamaica’s most distinctive and revered vocalists. His voice – instantly recognisable for its haunting, ethereal quality – remains as pure and affecting as ever, untouched by time and still capable of stirring deep emotion.
Perhaps best known to many for his long-standing collaboration with the pioneering British trip-hop outfit Massive Attack, Andy’s vocals are featured across all five of the band’s studio albums, seamlessly fusing dub and electronica with the spirit of classic reggae. His influence, therefore, reaches far beyond traditional reggae circles, contributing to the soundscape of modern music in unexpected and powerful ways.
Live, Horace Andy is nothing short of electrifying. Backed by the exceptional Dub Asante Band and featuring the legendary Matic Horns, his performances continue to captivate audiences, both long-time fans and new listeners alike. His shows are not only a celebration of reggae’s rich heritage but also a vibrant expression of its present and future.
