Showcasing his impressive artistic evolution, Matisyahu unveiled brand new song Open The Gates and performed songs that span his lauded catalogue, including selections from 2004’s Shake Off The Dust…Inviting the intimate crowd to join him in documenting the extraordinary energy in the room that evening, he and his audience created the musical time capsule that is now Live at Stubb’s Vol. II.

From album opener Kodesh to tracks such as Mist Rising, Youth, Darkness Into Light and One Day, Live at Stubb’s Vol. II is araw and inspiring musical journey that is sure to become a treasured part of Matisyahu’s acclaimed catalogue.

With prolific lyrics, anthemic choruses and his signature fusion of reggae, pop-rock, hip-hop, ska-inflected new wave and acoustic folk, Matisyahu has broken boundaries through his music and has unified millions of fans with his music and message of peace, hope and understanding. Since recording Live at Stubb’s on February 19, 2005, Matisyahu has gone on to become one of the most beloved and pioneering artists in music today with Stubb’s holding a special meaning for him and his fans.
