#LivePatioRTH

One of Canada’s top reggae bands, The Human Rights were formed in 2008 and specialize in original, high-energy, modern roots reggae with a mix of jazz, funk and R&B influences. “The Rights” are fronted by Friendlyness (Culture Shock, Big Sugar) and Juno nominee Tréson on lead vocals and feature a blazing 3-piece horn section, two stellar guitar players, and a rock steady riddim section, topped off by legendary reggae keyboardist Bernie Pitters (Toots and the Maytals, Hit Squad,Leroy Brown, Sly & Robbie) on the one drop. They released their debut album, One Thing, in 2010, and performed across the country. Their most recent self-titled album was produced by Big Sugar frontman and Canadian music icon Gordie Johnson and represents a powerful statement that the heartbeat of Canadian roots-reggae has never been stronger.
