The UK ska-reggae group World News got together in 2010. The group mixed reggae, ska, and funk styles, with Mark Richards as the lead singer and multi-instrumentalist. Early singles like One Beat (2011) got a lot of attention in the underground music scene. The band members had different musical backgrounds, having studied music in schools and played in local orchestras. This gave their live performances a one-of-a-kind sound that crossed genres.
Global Vibes came out in 2014 from World News. It had hits like "Unity" and "Rhythm Nation." They played at the Boomtown Fair in 2016 and Glastonbury in 2015. Working with reggae and ska artists helped them reach more people, and their albums made it onto UK indie and reggae charts, solidifying their reputation as a high-energy band that was ready for festivals.
They put out Echoes of the World in 2023, which had the hits "Sunrise Beat" and "One Love." Brass sections, interactive performances, and bright stage lighting are all part of live shows. Get your World News Tickets on Yadara now for a fun, worldwide music event.
