Taj Weekes is an enigma… on the one hand deeply serious and intensely passionate about his worldviews and on the other hand a gentle smile.

Weekes has a chameleon-like talent for blending into his surroundings as he keenly observes the world spinning around him, but the moment he steps on stage, locks flowing,
he reveals the regal bearing of a mighty lion, his voice rising from a hoarse whisper to a throaty growl.

Make no mistake, this man means business and he is not afraid of telling it like he sees it.

His unabashed views on the shared concerns of the world at large are stated with the certainty of a man who has seen and lived through much… a man with an acute awareness and empathy for others’ suffering.

A sense of urgency underlies Weekes’ poignant and poetic lyrics but is made more than palatable by the ever-present balance of optimistic roots reggae rhythms.
