Legendary British roots reggae band Steel Pulse is set to bring its message of unity, justice, and social consciousness across North America this summer as part of the Reggae Against Racism World Tour 2026. The tour celebrates more than five decades of activism and music from one of reggae’s most influential groups.

The U.S. leg of the tour kicks off July 17 in Oklahoma City and includes stops in St. Louis, Nashville, Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Phoenix, Ventura, Costa Mesa, and several other cities. Select dates in Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, and Pennsylvania will feature special appearances by The Original Wailers, while singer Eli-Mac is also slated to appear on portions of the run.

Frontman David Hinds says the tour is inspired by reggae’s enduring role as a voice against injustice and division. The tour concludes on August 16 in Costa Mesa, California, before the band returns for additional festival appearances later in the year.

Reggae queen Marcia Griffiths has joined forces with producer Sean Lewis Folkes for the release of “When You Love Me,” a lovers rock single shared on June 5 through Folkes‘ LF Productions label. The song finds Griffiths expressing appreciation for a partner whose love brings joy and fulfillment to her life.

Built around a captivating horn-driven melody, the track reunites Griffiths with Folkes, who praised the veteran singer’s expertise and dedication throughout the recording process. “Collaborating with Marcia is defined by professionalism and respect for reggae music traditions,” said Folkes.

Griffiths was supported on the track by South Florida’s Code Red Band. The group’s musicianship helps bring the song’s warm and soulful sound to life.

Folkes, whose production credits include Ed Robinson, Luciano, Pressure Busspipe, and several emerging artists, described his role on the project as ensuring the production remained true to reggae’s roots while allowing Griffiths‘ artistic vision to shine.

Widely regarded as one of reggae’s most enduring artists, Griffiths rose to prominence at Studio One during the 1960s with classics such as “Feel Like Jumping” and “Mark My Word.” She later gained international recognition as a member of The I Threes, Bob Marley‘s legendary harmony trio, and achieved global success with her 1982 hit “Electric Boogie.”

With “When You Love Me,” Griffiths adds another memorable chapter to a remarkable career that has spanned more than six decades.
