Jay Funk Dawg Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) Final swing of the Reggae Warrior Road Tour August 22 - The Townehouse - Sudbury, ON August 23 - Two Doors Down - Brantford, ON August 24 - Casbah Lounge - Hamilton, ON sponsored by Pure Hemp Toronto's House of David Gang has been known for their uplifting roots rock reggae sound reminiscent of Kingston, Jamaica's music scene in the late 70's mixed with a modern yet rootsy Canadian feel. The band takes its name from The House of David, an after-hours venue on Queen Street West in Toronto that was a hot spot for artists from the city's burgeoning Rastafarian / Reggae community from the late '80s until the mid '90s. Building a grassroots cult-like following across Canada, the 'Gang" as they are affectionately known continues to spread their positive musical message which is inspired by the "Three Wise Men of Jamaica:" Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer. The band has spent the past 4 years grinding it out from venue to venue, playing more than 200 dates, including headlining sold-out tours of Atlantic Canada and Ontario, as well as sharing stages with everyone from Xavier Rudd, Mighty Diamonds, Big Youth, Bushman, Mad Professor, Dawn Penn, Ill Scarlett and performing to over 30,000 people at Queen's Park in Toronto. Now with the release of their album "Reggae Warrior," produced with the support of The Ontario Arts Council and FACTOR and out on NuFunk Records, the band continues to pave their own road as Canada's hardest touring reggae band and currently climbing the Canadian Reggae Music Charts! www.houseofdavidgang.com www.facebook.com/houseofdavidgang www.myspace.com/houseofdavidgang www.twitter.com/House_of_David Check out the band playing their hit song "Best I Can Be" live on Breakfast Television: http://bit.ly/12UokHX Edited August 24, 2013 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
