Featuring some of the best reggae musicians from the
Democratic Republic of Congo, the Central African Republic,
Zimbabwe, Denmark and Ireland „The Light Runners? are a rare treat
with a backstory as exciting and interesting as their music. Some
members have fled dictatorships, spent years touring the world with
soukous bands, led gospel choirs and performed on „The Late Late
Show? while others have been busting their chops touring and
grooving their way across some of Europe?s finest festivals and a support slot with the Wailers themselves!
Staying true to “roots reggae? the band have been in and
out of the studio recording their albums that preach “one love,
peace and harmony” in times of fake news, war, migration, and
xenophobia. Blending their own original music with Jamaican,
African and English reggae The Light Runners have quickly become
synonymous with hypnotic hooks and fluid vocal harmonies with a
distinctly African flair. The head of this international super group
Lazare Mbouwoua and his enigmatic and energetic performances are
sure to bring a smile to your face and people of all ages to the dance
floor.
