Emerging from the vibrant British reggae movement, the band quickly established themselves as a formidable live act, touring extensively around London and backing legendary Jamaican artists such as Dennis Brown, Delroy Wilson, and Ken Boothe during their UK appearances. Their reputation soon translated into success of their own, beginning with the socially conscious reggae hit “Sticks Man,” which gained international attention across Europe. The band’s breakthrough came in 1980 with the release of the powerful Rastafarian anthem “Amigo,” which climbed to No. 9 on the UK Singles Chart and became a defining track of British roots reggae. This success led to releases on Ensign Records, including the dub album Ogima and the acclaimed studio album Sirens in the City, alongside further fan favourites such as “Boom Boom.” Between 1979 and 1985, Black Slate released a run of influential albums that cemented their status as pioneers of the UK reggae sound. After a lengthy hiatus, Black Slate returned in the 2010s with renewed purpose, releasing the World Citizen EP and later the albums Now and Then and Peaceful Demonstration on their own TCD Records label. They toured across the UK, Europe, and the United States, bringing their timeless sound to new generations of fans. Today, Black Slate continue to deliver dynamic live performances filled with classic hits, conscious messages, deep rhythms, and infectious energy, making every show a celebration of roots, culture, and reggae legacy. This is a must-see live experience from one of Britain’s true reggae pioneers.
