Known for blending deep reggae roots with strong pop harmonies, they quickly built a reputation for energetic live shows. Their 1985 debut album featuring \u201cWild\u201d propelled them to international touring and earned them JUNO Awards in 1990 and 1993, cementing their legacy in Canadian reggae history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
