Back in the early ‘90s, my longtime friend Wanda Whitaker and I had been producing festival programs for events and came up with an idea to publish one program for all the festivals they were involved with in California. We took that idea one step further developing the program to be used as a vehicle to sell tickets and get the information out to fans before the events, and that gave birth to The Reggae Festival Guide magazine in 1995.

The first Guide was 12 pages long and only included California festivals. In 1996, The Reggae Festival Guide expanded to 40 pages and included festivals in some of the western states. In 1997, the Guide was up to 60 pages with more festivals than ever. Then in 1998, east coast promoters wanted to be in it and the Guide increased to 72 pages, and circulated 75,000 copies so there were enough to go around.

In 2014, we celebrated our 20th issue and the last year that the magazine would be available in print.

We continued strong with our Digital Magazine for 5 more years and reached more reggae fans than ever.

Thanks to all our advertisers who helped us get to where we are today, and thanks to our readers who buy tickets to the festivals and enable us to keep forwarding the reggae vibe.

Although the annual magazine no longer exists, our company remains strong as we help bands and events daily through advertising and publicity services.

My publishing company, RBA Publishing Inc. keeps growing and adding media products to bring you trusted coverage of Reggae happenings from around the world.
