Singer: Marquis Melody Job: Singer and Songwriter Location: Oakland, California Genre: Roots Rock Reggae Influences: Bob Marley, Barrington Levy, Taurus Riley and Sugar Minott
Biography:
Marquis Melody stands at the crossroads where authentic roots reggae meets world beat. The Oakland California based singer is a sponge that soaks up myriad influences but squeezes them out in the form of solid roots rock reggae.
With his latest release Roots Party he is set to take center stage after recording and performing for close to a decade. The single is a hard hitting composition with the lyrical quest of searching for that place of satisfaction which Marquis describes as a "roots party". Found on the same riddim as Sizzla's - Why Shoud I it is the title track for an EP to be released shortly on VP subsidiary VPAL.
He is of Jamaican heritage but was born in the United States. During his adolescent years he briefly lived in the island in the Manning Hills area. He always knew that music was calling him and learnt to play the guitar at an early age. Attending University of California he became quite popular performing on campus.
Making frequent trips to Jamaica he embarked on a recording career working with some of the islands top musicians. Taking up residence in studios like Anchor and Tuff Gong the result was his debut album Straight From The Heart. The nineteen track opus distributed through CD Baby featured the single Sunshine. With videos for Sunshine and another song Hearts Of Fire, and steady airplay Marquis began to gain a small but loyal following on the west coast and in Europe. So successful was Sunshine that it was even in the early running for a reggae grammy in 2009, though it fell short of the final list. He also made the runs of various clubs and festivals from Seattle to Los Angeles.
Now with a renewed focus Marquis secured the services of manager Roger Grant in order to make a serious push towards greater recognition. Grant is the former manager of Natural Black and explains his reason for taking on Marquis, "his sound is unique and his approach is very professional."
With a music video in the works and a marketing plan in place the only way is up for Marquis Melody and the artist says "Im ready for it".
In March 2014, Marquis Melody releases the new EP "Roots Party" through VPAL Music, while in May 2015 he released new single "Show Me"

Biography:
Meet Andrew Stephenson (born September 6, 1976, Manchester, Jamaica) known commonly as Osezua Reggae Artist Jamaican born singer, composer and performer inspired by the troubles of the world. His wide spectrum of music brings a unique new perspective to the 21st century.
In 1993, Osezua's earlier work "Judgment " was well received by the roots community. His next release "Lesson's Of Teachings" made a conscious splash in 2003 along with the though-provoking "Lord Anointed". In 2009, the highly anticipated album, "The Reckoning" was released with the pulsating hit "Narcotic Rock". Fans can expect more from the Chicago Music Award nominee as he prepares to release the powerful single "Concern" in 2012.
He has been privileged to share the bill with some of reggae’s biggest names such as Inner Circle, Beres Hammond, Tony Rebel, The Meditations, Junior Marvin, Judy Mowatt, Rita Marley, Everton Blender, The Itals, Yellowman, Burning Spear, The Wailers and many others. “Jah has given me the opportunity and ability to perform with some of reggae's biggest personalities. As an artist I will continue to deliver messages of unity, empowerment and liberation. I will continue to be a musical vessel for Jah."
I run my own production company and creating new projects on a weekly basis, building my credits and writing songs with the mission of unity and human consciousness. I'm very excited inspired by my journey and discovering new opportunities on a daily basis. Music must have vision with a purpose that encourages, inspire and uplifts….
