Playing shows with big names including Nas, Damien Marley, the Easy Star All-Stars and Rebelution introduced the Green to a new, massive audience and they proved to be a hit in their own right. Their debut album, which has been championed by fans and critics alike, was named one of Billboard's "Top 10 Reggae Albums of 2010" and was the "Best Reggae Album of 2010" on iTunes; a modern-day marker of the widespread appeal of the band, their music and their message. Wrapping tight grooves and catchy hooks around conscious lyrics focused on increasing love, awareness and environmental responsibility, this grown-from-seed band carries with it a spirit of unity; a sense that we are all one-people, sharing one-planet. With songs like "What Will Be Will Be," "Love I," "Wake Up" and "Love Machine," the Green makes clear its mission: to remind audiences that life is what we make it and that everyday is an opportunity to spread the love. -Cat Johnson sanjose.com
