Info
On June 5, 2027, Chalk in Brighton welcomes Toots and the Maytals, now featuring Leba Hibbert at the front. Born out of Kingston’s early-60s scene, the group helped shape the bridge from ska to rocksteady to reggae, mixing tight vocal harmonies with a gospel-and-soul punch that made their songs hit harder than the average dancefloor tune.
This show leans on the catalogue that built their legend: “54-46 Was My Number”, “Pressure Drop”, “Monkey Man”, “Funky Kingston”, “Time Tough” and more—songs that still sound like a direct line to the roots of Jamaican music. The band’s history also carries a milestone: “Do the Reggay”, the 1968 track often cited for putting the word “reggae” into wider circulation.
With Leba Hibbert stepping into her father Toots’ role, the set keeps that raw, soulful energy alive while bringing a new voice to a repertoire made for singing back at full volume.
