Toots and the Maytals featuring Leba Hibbert

Reggae Got Soul Tour

SUPPORT: JOEL STOKER (THE RIFLES)

 

Following the hugely successful 2025 tour, Toots and the Maytals featuring Leba Hibbert return to spread their timeless reggae spirit. The Maytals first formed in the 1960s, updating their name to Toots and the Maytals for their debut album Sweet And Dandy in 1969. Regarded as one of the most influential ska and rocksteady groups, they famously introduced the word “reggae” to the world with their 1968 single Do The Reggay.

Led for decades by the legendary Frederick “Toots” Hibbert – hailed by Rolling Stone as one of the 100 greatest singers of all time – the band created classics such as 54-46 Was My NumberMonkey ManPressure DropFunky Kingston and Reggae Got Soul. Today, Toots’ daughter Leba Hibbert carries the torch, bringing her own acclaimed voice and experience working with icons like Sly & Robbie and Jimmy Cliff to honour her father’s enduring legacy.
