For 50 years, UK reggae legends Steel Pulse have captivated audiences with powerful, socially conscious music.
Known for timeless tracks like ‘Rally Round the Flag‘, ‘Roller Skates‘, and ‘Stepping Out‘ and founded by David ‘Dread’ Hinds and Selwyn Brown in 1975, the band grew from Birmingham’s vibrant music scene, gaining global recognition with a unique blend of reggae, punk, and rock.
Touring with icons like Bob Marley and Bob Dylan, they brought reggae into the mainstream, inspiring generations. Join Steel Pulse for a historic celebration of unity, resilience, and soul-stirring reggae.
