Doors are at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 in advance on Eventbrite ticketing platform and $25 day of show. Ashkenaz is an all-ages venue.
Headlining this year’s lineup is Prezident Brown. Prez is a Jamaican roots reggae artist who carries a universal message of love, consciousness and righteousness. He is a gifted vocalist who has been steadily focusing on his calling as a singer from an early age, never wavering in his focus. Prez has been touring the U.S. consistently and building his following with his I Sound band.
Also, on the lineup is Knox Dixon, aka Kulcha Knox. Born on the high tropical mountains of Manchester, Jamaica, he has traveled, toured, and performed in the African countries of Rwanda, Ethiopia, Malawi, Ivory Coast, and Gambia to name a few; and across many countries in Europe. In 1997 he released his debut album Praise Jah Again under the Kariang Music label and toured with reggae artists, Capleton, Iqulah, InI Kamoze and more. Wherever Kulcha Knox performs, his melody, energy, versatility, and unique style leave an imprint with audiences of all nationalities, creeds, and colors. He is the son of the late great music/reggae pioneer, radio DJ, producer and educator Jeff “Free I” Dixon.
“On and off the stage, Kulcha Knox is a benevolent Incient soul that has a positive irits to Rasta music and it is a pleasure to have warriors like these on the front lines of the battle of Good over Evil.” ~ Steve Newland -The Lightning – Rootz Underground

As a member of his family (they are blood cousins and he used to tour with him), I want to make sure his name, music and legacy live on. He was taken too soon so it is my job, my honor, my passion to keep his legacy going.”
