GRAMMY award winning singer and second eldest son of reggae legend Bob Marley and Rita Marley, Stephen “Ragga” Marley is set to release his fourth studio album, Revelation Part II: The Fruit of Life, July 22, alongside an impressive summer tour with supporting acts from The Skints and Nattali Rize on select dates. The nationwide tour begins on Thursday, May 26, 2016 in Redway, California which will include multiple festivals and will see 44 cities ending in New Orleans on Sunday, July 24.
Revelation Part II: Fruit of Life is the second installment of his two part series
Revelation Part II: Fruit of Life is the second installment of his two part series, following Revelation Part I: The Root of Life (2011).
