" M y music is
homegrown from
the garden o f New
Orleans. Music is
everything to me
short o f breathing.
Music also has a
role to lift you
up—not to be
escapist but to
take you out o f
m isery."

( A P)— Bunny Wailer, the reggae
legend w ho was one o f the original
W aiters along with Bob Marley and
Peter Tosh, will tour for the firs,
tim e with a new generation of
M arleys.
W a ile r w ill p lay a lo n g sid e
M arley’s sons, Stephen and Ziggy,
on the Roots, Rock, Reggae Festi­
val, a m onth-long tour that opens
Aug. 6 in Redway, Calif.
The 59-year-old W ailer, whose
real nam e is N ev ille O 'R ile y
Livingston, said in a phone inter­
view from Jam aica that he consid­
ers it his “responsibility and duty”
to tour with the M arley family.
“ I'm the foundation o f all o f this
stuff,” he said. "And I remain; some­
way, som ehow I’ve been sustained
to be here. And th ere’s a new gen­
eration that’s now beingestabl ished
musically th a t's com ing from the
W aiters’ family."
Stephen M arley, 34. will head­
line the tour. Ziggy M arley, 37, will
also perform , as will the group
Ozomatli.
