Get up, stand up.

Overview

If there's one thing that Brisbanites like more than talking about our weather (it's hot — we're with you), it's a good old-fashioned music tribute. Songs, bands, fallen stars, the year that was: we're only a couple of weeks into 2017, but the calendar has been full of them.

At Ric's on January 28, Bob Marley is in the spotlight. If you're wondering why, we'll counter with the obvious: why not? What would've been his 72nd birthday is just around the corner, but this evening of tunes is all about celebrating his life and legacy.

As well as renditions of the likes of 'I Shot the Sheriff', 'No Woman, No Cry', 'Is This Love' and 'Buffalo Soldier', attendees can enjoy the musical stylings of Shem Reggae, the only Aussie artist who has worked with members of the Wailers. So, get up, stand up and make your way to the Valley for a night of Marley magic to remember.
