There are not many musicians who can boast 40 years in the business and still tour the world with their first single. And, there are not many artists who can cast a Motown legend as a friend. But, Dennis Seaton, along with his fellow Musical Youth bandmates were and are still, unique. Their success story from Birmingham, U.K to the global stage has been somewhat overshadowed by the not so happy times. And, there hasn’t been another successful mainstream like them since. So, let’s join Dennis on the Reggae Lounge to celebrate this milestone and tell his story. A Dawn Howard Production.

In honour of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II passing, the Reggae Lounge is commemorating her 70 year reign with reggae classics from the Jubilee years. Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon or wherever you get your podcasts. A Dawn Howard Production.

What better way to start Season 2 than celebrating 60 years of independence of the island where reggae was born: Jamaica. This episode features Six @ Sixty reggae duets. A Dawn Howard Production.

Christmas 2021 and not a Wizzard, Boney M or even Mariah Christmas singalong in sight. So welcome to The Reggae Lounge Christmas musical staples; once heard, you will not forget. Enjoy a few of the much less played festive reggae tunes. Merry Reggae Christmas…..

TV legend. Before I began my podcast, this lady was in my loungin’ top five! I cannot gush enough on how much I enjoyed interviewing Brenda Emmanus OBE. But how does a girl from Lambeth, aiming to be an actor, end up as the BBC Arts Correspondent interviewing the A list elite? What fellow television legend was her rock and which screenwriter’s book changed her life?And of course, we get to hear Brenda’s three reggae classics. A great way to mark The Reggae Lounge Podcast for Black History Month UK.

If you think it’s only James Bond who has the monopoly of great film soundtracks, then welcome to this edition’s Reggae Lounge. Erica delves into the world of the big (and not so big) silver screen with some surprising but truly mesmerising tunes.

Once you’re locked in conversation with BBC’s Radio 1 and 1xtra presenter Seani B, it soon becomes apparent that he is a DJ with a difference; having one of the most listened to shows, music producer to reggae icons and winning a Grammy is just the beginning. Plus hear his top three reggae classics.

Whether it’s punk or rock, all musical paths will lead to the ultimate reggae version.

For many years, radio broadcaster and voiceover artist Angie Greaves, has mesmerised listeners with that voice. On the Reggae Lounge, Angie tells us how the film Gone with the Wind led to that voice being unexpectedly discovered; how she created many broadcasting firsts in her long career plus her top three reggae classics.
