One reggae pageant we stay up for yearly is the Reggae Jam Pageant in Germany, not only for the performances, however perhaps much more for its laid-back vibe, each on the pageant grounds and backstage. It’s that type of pageant the place artists join with fellow musicians, and photographers and journalists can transfer round freely to speak, shoot, and interview with out problem.
Though safety was noticeably tighter this 12 months, it didn’t take away from the nice vibes. Similar with the climate, heavy rain was anticipated, however Jah Jah clearly had His eyes on the pageant, retaining it principally dry throughout the three days.
Sadly, I didn’t get to shoot all of the artists, blame it on the occasional rain, good conversations backstage, and simply being within the second. Nonetheless, I’m wanting again on an amazing weekend stuffed with performances by Zamunda, Marcus Gad, Treesha, Teacha D, Unstoppable Fyah, Teejay, Eesah, Jah Tung, Macka B, Natty King, Chuck Fenda, Kaylan Arnold, Mystic Revealers, I Noah, G Whizz, Nature Ellis, Mortimer, The Rising Suns, Rik Jam, Dalwayne, and Akeem Garrison.
A Huge “Danke Schön” to Sheriff and the Reggae Jam crew for the nice and cozy hospitality. Hope to be again subsequent 12 months, or perhaps I’ll strive a distinct vibe subsequent time. Time will inform.
