Over Three Decades Representing World Music and Reggae Artists
Fast
Lane International, founded in 1984 to spread the positive conscious
energy and message of Reggae Music, has entered its fourth decade of
representation for artists in the reggae and world beat genres.
Classic roots reggae greats and exciting new world music artists
grace the roster for 2018. The agency also continues to assist venues
and event planners with bookings, budgeting and talent buying.
From
such a broad base of experience in the market, it can be noted that
the business of music has gone through some dramatic changes,
especially over the past ten years with the advent of social media.
It is the goal of this agency to assist artists in understanding the
dynamics of this change and what is now required of artists serious
about developing an audience or fan base prior to booking
engagements. Fast Lane is prepared to offer guidance and
encouragement to emerging artists and share the prospects of exciting
new talent with venues and promoters.
Fast Lane is proud to
introduce new and exciting international artists to US markets
and to foster the exposure of more classic reggae greats to
younger audiences. This year has proven to be an exceptional one
for classic Roots Reggae greats Culture (now
fronted by Kenyatta Hill) on a worldwide tour in celebration of
the 40th Anniversary of the Two Sevens Clash Album which Rolling
Stone in 2007 called the coolest Reggae Album of all time
