David Hillyard & The Rocksteady 7

David Hillyard & The Rocksteady 7 are a genre-blending ensemble led by acclaimed saxophonist David Hillyard, founding member of The Slackers. Since the late 1990s, the group has fused Jamaican ska and rocksteady rhythms with jazz, soul, and Afro-Caribbean influences, creating a rich, improvisational sound. Their dynamic live shows and deep musicianship have made them a cornerstone of the modern ska and reggae scene.
