Sammy Dread Bio
Shunning everything modern, anglar, and neurotic, Sammy Dread epitomizes the magical radiance of the Jamaican roots singer who delivers a visionary philosophy that yearns for a stolen past and knows that music must be both sweet and dread for people to understand.

"Roadblock," "Bad Boy Fire M-16," and "Dreadlocks Girl" are just three Sammy Dread boomshots taht define the vitality and rapture of regae's golden era in the 70's and 80's. Even if his voice were never heard from again, those tunes would be engraved forever in the memories of countless listeners. Thanks to John Shop Records, Sammy Dreadlocks is back on the mic, creating a brand new set of tracks that bring the art of roots rock to a whole new level - stripped of tired references and made relevant for today.
