Equal parts master storyteller and motivational guide, he deftly explores issues of environmental awareness and self-empowerment, while returning again and again to the transformative power of love.

Burning Spear has been nominated for 12 Grammy Awards and won two for Best Reggae Album. He was awarded the Jamaican government’s Order of Distinction for outstanding services to music and has established his own label.
