Sounds & Pressure – Reggae In A Foreign Land

On August 22nd, 2024, Johnny Osbourne, Nana McLean, Leroy Sibbles, Roy and Yvonne and Jerry Brown and Summer Records took center stage in Toronto.  The National Film Board of Canada premiered their production of their docuseries entitled Sounds & Pressure – Reggae In A Foreign Land which featured these artists contributions to the early days of Reggae.

At the height of the golden age of reggae, some of Jamaica’s brightest stars left their homeland behind to shine their light in an unlikely hub of Caribbean creativity: Toronto.
