Marcus Gad – Global Roots Reggae
Marcus Gad is a fast-rising conscious roots reggae artist from New Caledonia in the South Pacific. With his band Tribe, he blends spiritual roots, soul, and world influences to deliver an immersive, meditative live experience that honors reggae’s Jamaican origins while embracing its global evolution.
Since 2016, Marcus has lit up stages across Europe at Rototom Sunsplash, Reggae Sun Ska, Ostroda Reggae Fest, Shambala, and Boomtown, sharing bills with Alborosie, Akae Beka, Horace Andy, and Christopher Martin. As a cultural ambassador of his island homeland—where nature and ancestral traditions remain deeply rooted—he channels the power of reggae to inspire reflection, unity, and global awareness.
His sound is expansive yet grounded: Aboriginal rhythms, Eastern vocal scales, and ancient Indian mantras meet the warmth of soul and the pulse of modern roots. With a resonant voice and hypnotic harmonies, Marcus invites listeners into a journey where rhythm meets reflection and culture connects across continents.
