Junior Marvin left his solo career to join Bob Marley & The Wailers after turning down an offer from Stevie Wonder on the very same date of February 14th, 1977. 37 years later & Junior Marvin is still at it and back on the road for a string of west coast dates.

Still performing as well as recording, Junior Marvin has been in the studio working on new material with his Foundation To Creation Tour-mates, Nappy Riddem. The plan is for each group to co-produce two new tracks, and then a special 4-track “Foundation To Creation EP” to follow.
