The Wailers is a Jamaican reggae and ska band created by Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer. The band formed when self-taught musician Hubert Winston McIntosh (Peter Tosh) met Neville Livingston (Bunny Wailer) and Robert Nesta Marley (Bob Marley) in 1963. By late 1963, Junior Braithwaite, Beverley Kelso, and Cherry Smith had joined the Wailers after Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer left the band in 1974.
Today, Bob Marley’s brother Aston leads the band as it continues its worldwide campaign to promote peace, love and equality through the message of reggae and Rastafari.
The Wailers Concert in Sri Lanka is a presentation of Mainstage Events and the Global Art of Mixing, the newest event producers in the scene.
