Bak To Roots + Band in Ottawa, ON

ABOUT

We are a resident studio band that consist of a dynamic reggae duo of two brothers with over 35 years of experience as professional musicians that specialize in creating and mastering original studio one style rub-a-dub reggae for commercial audio cd/dvd etc., soundtracks, movies, television and film, background environmental, jingles and more.

All lead by the band master and master bassist himself "Juba" who plays just like the studio one greats alongside his brother and master drummer "Ghilly" whose one drop reggae style would have made the legendary Horsemouth and even Sir Coxsone himself proud.
