Black Roots

Black Roots were a powerful and potent force in the British Reggae music scene throughout the 80s and left a legacy of no less than ten albums and more than eight singles before bowing out of the public eye in the mid 90s.

The original 8 member band were formed in 1979 and quickly gained a large following by touring almost non-stop around the country, playing their brand of 'militant pacifism' roots. Their debut album 'Black Roots' released in 1983 was a highly acclaimed debut and saw them make their mark immediately on the national music scene.
