This band combines a rawness and freshness of sound with timeless rhythms that echo in the heart.

With the skillful mixing of Graham Johnson blending the musical talents and featuring each one too, this is a musical treat not to be missed.

Keyboardist Alex Mathias was part of the ‘Spirit of Unity’ International Reggae Tour 1999 that featured Third World and Maxi Priest. His musical credits as performer, songwriter, producer and arranger read like a who’s who of reggae and after you have heard his tight, driving rhythms you will understand why.

Drummer/Percussionist Jamal Browne takes you on a musical exploration of mathematical proportions, dividing, subtracting and multiplying beats in wonderful combinations, touching a primal consciousness that instinctively responds to every nuance of his rhythmical patterns. He too has performed alongside the best!

Bass player David Wallerson is a musician whose talents are much in demand and he has performed with opening bands on major reggae shows featuring Maxi Priest, Bunny Wailer and Beres Hammond among others. Weaving a bass line that is felt as well as heard, his solid beat is the perfect accompaniment for Melody Man.

Guitarist Scott Zimmerman is a visual contradiction. Laid back movement is in total contrast to flying fingers plucking from the strings rhythms and melodies that sing a song as evocative as any vocalist. Scott has added his magic to classic rock, funk and hip hop bands as well as with major reggae artistes.

Third Stone was the band of choice for the 2004 Bob Marley birthday celebration held at After Dark in February. The band, with Melody Man out front, opened the show in Pirie fashion, with Melody Man’s fantastic voice finding many fans.

The band then backed headliner Gregory Isaacs, a reggae icon from the same era as Bob Marley.

Everyone who has witnessed a Third Stone performance agrees, whether you are a visitor to Barbados or a local, a trip to The Gap on a Wednesday night is a very rewarding experience.
