Nashville, TN — August 14, 2026
History matters, and it is told in evolving stories. These narratives hold connection, inspiration and foundational values. The Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, TN, is a mecca for the living history of beloved songs that have made trips around the world, only to be revisited in their original place, where the music was born. This is because artists who play at the Bluebird Cafe are strictly songwriters themselves. The venue is small, intimate and intentionally quiet with respect for the honour of the work. So quiet that 'Ssshhhh' ing or a "Pardon" is common practice if someone - anyone, is talking over a musical performance.
In the Green Hills neighbourhood of Nashville, the Bluebird Cafe is five miles from the main honky tonk strip of Broadway. It is nestled in a small suburban strip mall between a dry cleaners, a barber shop, a liquor store and a hair salon. Established in 1982 by Amy Kurland as a small restaurant with a sound stage for patrons, it remains humble to its roots. The sanctity of the genuine pursuit of quality music that is original and home grown, gave rise to the Bluebird Cafe as the organic inception of musical legends.

Often, when going to a live performance, music fans know already what to expect, in terms of songs that are going to be played on stage by a band, the style in which said songs are going to be played and sometimes, even the setlist of the whole show.
Rather fortunately though, this is something that almost never applies to some, especially to the British Dub King and bass guitar Maestro Jah Wobble, performing tonight at the historical Marine Theatre in Lyme Regis, a splendid coastal town in the Southwest of the United Kingdom.

For generations, New Orleans has been hallowed ground for people of diverse cultures to come together to heal from suffering, to communicate strength in community, and to lift each other up with music. The 2026 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival held a special celebration for Jamaica, to support the recovery efforts from Hurricane Melissa. If you spend any time with local people in New Orleans, the impact of Hurricane Katrina continues to be felt in some parishes.
The lineup for the 2026 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival was bold, colorful, inclusive and expanded to many genres. With his signature bright smile, open arms and invulnerable spirit, Ziggy Marley led the way to welcome all people in coming together with warmth, connection and positivity.
