About THE BIG SOUND

Since their genesis in 2002, THE BIG SOUND has crafted a unique style by blending the vintage sounds of early Jamaican popular music into the contemporary southern California music scene. The result is a mixture of original rocksteady, reggae, dub and ska that brings a fresh take on traditional sounds of the Golden Era of Jamaican music ('66-'73).
