Mikey Dangerous with special guests
Born in Kingston. Jamaica & now based in Montreal, reggae artist Mikey Dangerous has been infusing the musical landscape with quality reggae for over a decade. He has earned an international reputation as a dynamic, multifaceted performer & recording artist. His repertoire blends traditional roots reggae, upbeat rhythms, intoxicating melodies, & a voice that resonates with clarity & conviction. Chart-topping songs such as “Step with the Father”, “Africa The Beautiful”, “Protect Me Jah”, “Higher Than High" and “Wake Up” have made Mikey Dangerous a household name on the Canadian reggae scene. He is the proud winner of Canada’s most prestigious music honour, The Juno Award for Reggae Recording of the Year, for his single "Don't Go Pretending" (2008) and earned a second nomination for his hit single “Wake Up” (2015). Having recently entered into a new partnership with Rebel Vibez in collaboration with Taste of The Caribbean, Mikey Dangerous has embarked on a new path, but remains on the same mission to touch the hearts and lives of all who hear his music.

When it comes to reggae in Canada, few bands do it better—while remaining true to its founding principles—than Toronto’s The Human Rights. Since forming in 2007 around one of the scene’s true lions, Friendlyness (previously of Culture Shock, Truth And Rights and Big Sugar), The Human Rights have developed a modern, high energy sound that blends Roots Reggae with jazz, funk and R&B influences, courtesy of a blazing three-piece horn section and the soulful lead vocals of Juno award nominee Tréson. On their new album Reggae Strong, The Human Rights more than live up to its title following an extended break since releasing their 2016 self-titled album and the 2018 single “I Need You.” Recorded with producer and former band member Patric McGroarty, and mixed and mastered by renowned Canadian reggae artist Dubmatix, Reggae Strong finds The Human Rights coming as close as they have yet to achieving a truly Canadian reggae sound, with guest appearances by Toronto’s Ras Yunchie, Caddy Cad, I-Sax, and Carol Brown.
