Ziggy Marley Performs at Carolina Theatre of Durham

Ziggy Marley is an eight-time Grammy winner, Emmy winner, musician, producer, activist, and humanitarian who has cultivated a legendary career for close to 40 years. The eldest son of Bob and Rita Marley, Ziggy has hewed his own path as a musical pioneer, infusing the reggae genre with funk, blues, rock and other elements through mindful songcraft. Equal parts master storyteller and motivational guide, his music deftly explores issues from environmental awareness to self-empowerment and social injustice to political inequity, while returning again and again to the transformative power of love. He applies the same values to his charity URGE, which benefits the well-being of children in Jamaica, Africa, and North America.
