STEPHEN MARLEY ( Acoustic Unplugged) February 11, 2009

The second eldest son of Bob and Rita Marley, Stephen previously performed in Ziggy's band the Melody Makers, produced separate albums for Damian and Julian, and recorded the platinum-selling, star-studded Bob Marley tribute album Chant Down Babylon, winning more Grammys than any reggae artist in history before even recording his first solo album. Mind Control was released in March 2007 and peaked at #35 on the Billboard charts, thanks in part to the beat-box heavy hit "The Traffic Jam," which recounts an episode with a police officer in Tallahassee, and a modernized yet faithful take on Ray Charles' "Lonely Avenue."
