INFORMA:Organs Trenchtown Experience/Portugal Experience Reggae Playground & Musical Ambassador Welcomes You to the Trenchtown ExperienceThe Original Music has arisen from Trenchtown, Again; Foundation Sounds of Roots Rock Reggae from Organs - the New Voice of The Trenchtown Sound. Musical Ambassador Record's Trevor "Bassa" Elliott worked tireless with organs to craft this masterpiece; "Trenchtown Experience.. The CD for The Times" Download the Trenchtown Experience Podcast Organs career spans from Trenchtown to Toronto; From Uganda to Australia; from the small dancehalls of Maroon Town to the World Stage opening for the Wailers.
The abilities of genius are evident early on; and with Organs this was clear from his childhood. his early days as an opening act mirrored his idol Bob Marley; as he was a surefire threat to the headliner; when he came on first and set the vibes high. Major Headliners and Stars such as The Melody Makers, Wailers, Gregory Isaacs and many others were the stepping stones to this monumental release. in 1989 Organs walked into Tuff Gong Studios with his then producer, Stephen Marley - with back up from the Melody Makers' to create his first hit "Problem With My Woman Again". This memorable first collaboration led to Organs decision to Self Produce and Compose, "Terror Tactics".Throughout the years and after many well deserved awards, Organs has worked tirelessly to preserve the true sound and spirit of Reggae. as Tuff Gong's Pioneering Engineer Errol Brown says "This No Streggae, This Is Reggae".. and so it begins,
