Tribute To The Legends 2013

The Tribute to the Legends festival is right around the corner. The beginning of the year is here and that means that the San Diego rainy day blues are about to be chased away by the sounds of sweet reggae music. The new home for the festival has been a great transition from the Sports Arena, where it has been held years past. The pavilion features a large hanger for the main stage, with lots of floor space. There are ramps that lead to balconies along the side of the auditorium that overlook the main stage. The large hangar can also accommodate a large amount of vendors, which feature an array of reggae and Rastafari culture products. Stone brewery sponsored the beer garden last year and will return this year to host the outdoor drinking area.

Say what you want to say, but this venue is a top choice in San Diego. With the closing of 4th and B and the fear of rain this time of year, the cruise ship terminal gives concert-goers a dry, spacious indoor venue to watch the headliners.  This year, the amazing line-up includes international sensations like Don Carlos, Luciano, Warrior King, Martin Read more

Southern California World Music Festival

The Southern California World Music Festival will be making its debut in San Diego this month. This extraordinary event will take place at the Four Points Sheraton on July 28th and 29. Located at 8110 Aero Drive, this Sheraton is in a central part of San Diego that is easily accessible from anywhere in the county. This event will feature two days and two stages of amazing Reggae and World music acts. You can’t beat this ticket price, especially considering all the booked talent.  After the event, there will be an after party with the Tribe of Kings at the Office. Don’t miss the rare opportunity to socialize with the same artists you saw perform earlier that day! This festival is an all ages event, so avid reggae lovers can bring the whole family. An amazing weekend of great music couldn’t be possible without sponsors. Check out these sponsors at the festival: TWINE Hempwear, Green Dream Music Management, Trini-West Records, Irie Nation, Tru Reelz, Irie Lion Entertainment, 420 Nurses, Freedom Fighters Clothing, HUGO’S Ice Cream, and Royal Emperor Sound.  The local talent, as well as the headliners, are all ideal choices for this festival. Personally,  I am excited to  check out local talent  Piracy Conspiracy and Jam Kwest on Saturday. This festival is sure to be an entertaining show for old and young souls alike.

Saturday’s lineup is as follows:

Identity Festival 2012

Identity is returning for another day of debauchery on August 18, 2012 at Cricket Wireless Amphitheatre. The main stage will be accompanied by a RockStar stage to ensure there will be music playing at all times. Sponsored by iHome, Rockstar, Bed Head, Jagermeister, and Miller Genuine Draft, this event has definitely grown in size since last year’s debut.

This year, LED has booked artists such as Eric Prydz, Excision, Porter Robinson, Paul van Dyk, Hardwell, Showtek, Le Castle Vania, and many more. If you are a house music lover or just love to see half naked chicks bouncing t o the beat, this event won’t disappoint. The all-day, all ages festival starts at 2pm and ends at 11pm. Last year, the energy was palpable as hordes of music lovers poured into the venue to stake out a meeting spot on the grass.

This year they will be allowing one sealed water bottle per person, as well as an empty re-usable water bottle to prevent dehydration;  a smart move for an all-day festival in Chula Vista. People who love to do lightshows for their fellow ravers can bring LED gloves, glowsticks, and hula hoops, as well as a small backpack. There are also non-professional cameras allowed to document the  costumes and scantily clad Read more

Andre Nickatina House of Blues May 23rd

 May 23rd at House of Blues Downtown, Andre Nickatina will be performing! Originally Andre Adams, this American rapper from San Francisco is famous for his sharp stage presence as one of the last Legends of the Bay Area. This is not a show you want to miss. Nickatina is known for songs like “Ayo for Yayo” and “Smoke Dope and Rap”. With heavy bass that brings the classic hip-hop from around the block  back but keeps it fresh with a unique voice that commands like an MC should. Fun and funky lyrics that make you laugh and make you think. Nickatina’s subject matter covers everything from gang violence to the American drug culture. His unique spin on the hip-hop culture has brought something new to the table and ensures a good show. Nickatina’s song’s are easy to listen to yet still hold loyal to being music of the streets. Anyone can enjoy. This show is going to be a great way to make the middle of your week bearable again. Rockhill Studios and Mr. Jihaan Barbat have done it again with another great show. Buy your tickets today at Livenation.com.   ~Tom Searcy

Seedless 420 Party

Seedless annual 420 party was an awesome celebration of a day centered around understanding. The theme this year was diversity in music. The show featured a night of music from Hip-Hop kings the Living Legends. Reggae sensation Johnny Osbourne was also featured. The night was broken up with DJ sets of roots music. 6Blocc Deejayed Dub-Step sound to continue the diversity. The opener’s for the night were a sound all of their own out of Atlanta. Fountainhead opened the show for the 12th annual party. This event was put together by Seedless and Rockhill. Thanks to Mr. Jihaan Barbat for coordinating, promoting, booking, and “all-arounding” this event. Mr. Barbat has put together many awesome shows in this town and he is definitely a San Diegan to know.  Jihaan brought us Snoop Dogg for 420 last year. He also put together the Don Carlos and Junior Reid firehouse reunion show. Quality musicians that people really want to see. Only your friends at Rock Hill and Seedless could put together something this epic for 4/20/2012.

The House of Blues was Seedless’d out in banners and green logo lights. Read more
