The musical greats of our lives have been in our hearts and minds so powerfully this year with Prince and Bowie departing this world.
Another true legend was Bob Marley – arguably the greatest artist that ever lived – with his awesome band The Wailers.
Junior Marvin was Bob’s lead guitarist and right-hand man, and he continued to front The Wailers when Marley passed.
When Marley decided on the musical vision of reggae rock, British-born and Jamaican-raised Junior Marvin was ushered in to provide the guitar licks and solos we will never forget.
In celebration of the debut album launch on 06 May 2016, Jarvis Smith, lead singer from The Phoenix Rose and a founding member of the Library, has invited his good friend and fellow recording artist Junior Marvin – who features on the album – to play some of the songs we all love, tell some stories and chat about why he decided – with all with his musical experience, genius and wisdom – that The Phoenix Rose was the band to back.
Junior Marvin is launching his new album, ‘Unite the time is Right’, at the end of June and will be touring the UK this summer. His single 'Reggae Rock' drops at the end of May.
The Phoenix Rose single and video ‘Destination’ – which has reached number one in the global reggae charts – launched on 25 March, and has already received massive TV support in America and radio support here in the UK. It has featured heavily on award-winning music blogs as a premiere and song of the day. The video has received well over 60k views in just four weeks and continues to spread like wildfire!
The Phoenix Rose's album is out on 06 May 2016 and is available to pre-order now on iTunes and Amazon.See the video and more here:

On August 15th, 2015, Junior Marvin's Wailers will take the main stage at Rototom Sunsplash to pay tribute to the legend Bob Marley! See below for more information and details from the article posted on Rototom's website.
"The Jamaican guitarist Junior Marvin made a substantial contribution in the work of Bob Marley between 1977 and 1981, the year of the death of the most famous Jamaican artist in history. He was part of all the albums of Bob Marley from the period, starting with the fundamental “Exodus” and ending with “Uprising” and participated in the worldwide tours which cemented the legend of Bob.
Junior emigrated to London as a child and was a worldwide child star on the guitar, after an apprenticeship period in the USA together with Ike & Tina Turner and the legendary bluesman Bone Walker. After the death of Bob, he continued to play with the Wailers for years, alongside Aston Barrett, and more recently in the Original Wailers, with the guitarist Al Anderson.
At Rototom Junior will pay tribute to the immortal music of Bob Marley with his own band."
