Brooklyn, NY – Over 6,000 fans turned out on Saturday for Judah Tribe’s performance at the Reggae
Retro/Revival Reggae Sundays dance party and concert. The performance was part of the Brooklyn Museum’s
Target 1st Saturdays monthly event. Judah Tribe thrilled the crowd with its special blend of soul reggae music.
One of the highlights of the night came when guitarist Les Paultre, father-in-law of the late Sean Bell, electrified
the crowd on the song Judgment.
The soon to be released single, Judgment, has become a hot topic of debate in many circles because of its fiery
lyrics. Fans were also treated to songs like Sometimes Love, Go Tell It & Sleepwalker, receiving a special preview
of the band’s upcoming debut album New Day Dawnin. From the United Nations and NJ Performing Arts Center
to S.O.Bs, the Danny Simmons Corridor Gallery and now the Brooklyn Museum, Judah Tribe has been
mesmerizing fans everywhere.
According to museum officials, the dance party and concert was one of their largest shows to date. Target 1st
Saturdays at the Brooklyn Museum has been ongoing for over 10 years. “It was one of the best shows I’ve seen”
said one fan. DJ Silence of Pointblank Sound alongside hype man Guidance also kept the crowd dancing with the
sweet sounds of reggae music.
