The annual Bob Marley Festival takes place in Tel Aviv, thanks largely to the ever loyal and huge fan base that resides in Tel Aviv!
Some big names in the world of Israeli music will take to the stage, usually at the Barby Club, and 2014 is proving to be no exception. Expect to see among others Shanan Street of HaDag NaHash, Tomer Yosef from Balkan Beat Box, Amir Dadon, Efraim Shamir of Kaveret, Kobi Parekh of Orphaned Land, and many more, all there to celebrate what would have been Bob Marley’s 69th birthday.
