John Brown’s Body w/ Giant Walking Robots

The torch has been relit! Featuring a group of long time JBB players, including founding members Kevin Kinsella, Tommy Benedetti, and Lee Hamilton, the undisputed OGs of the scene are fired up to hit the stage in 2025. This year, John Brown’s Body celebrates 30 years of making original roots reggae music around the world.  They will be touring as well as releasing new music throughout 2025.

The group has been on sabbatical the past few years, taking a break from the road and studio. But family is always family, and in early 2023, with JBB still dormant, Kinsella reached out to Benedetti about getting together to play some of the classic era JBB music. The crew was assembled, featuring players from all different periods of JBB’s history. After a handful of recent shows the embers were burning – the music was sounding better than ever and the time was right. So, with the support and blessing of Elliot Martin, the torch will be re-lit.
