Bob Marley & The Wailers
Episode 5
Wednesday, 8 May, 2024
In this episode of Influenced we go deep into the careers of the iconic Wailers. Formed by Peter Tosh, Bob Marley and Bunny Wailer in the early '60s as the group bonded over RnB like the Drifters and Sam Cooke, they quickly became an integral part of Jamacia's burgeoning Reggae scene with ealy singles like "Simmer Down" as the group continued to gain worldwide acclaim with albums like "Burnin"" and singles like Stir it Up and Get Up, Stand Up; the band and especially Marley became creative juggernauts. The band was an immediete influence on some of the biggest names in music like Paul McCartney , The Police and Eric Clapton and continue to be a massive influence to this day with artists like No Doubt and Gorillaz citing the Wailers as influences. Check out the podcast to do a deep dive into the band.
