In 2009 Zion was Invited by Alrick Thompson to Join Ziggy Marley in concert in Hawaii. Zion was given a “Best New Artist Awards after his performance from Thompson’s Productions. With a voice and style reminiscent of the foundation Reggae artist of the 70's, Zion has brought back the soul of classic Roots into contemporary Reggae music. Through his latest singles “Upright” and “Poor Man Crying”, Zion carries a torch of the foundation pioneers that carried the infectious drum & bass sounds of Reggae to international heights. Mixed at Bob Marley’s legendary Tuff Gong Studio in Jamaica,
“Upright” and “Poor Man Crying” demonstrate Zion’s knack for packing searing social commentary and spiritual revelations into pulsating drum rifts. Fiercely private of his sound, style and packaging, Zion has seen fit to master all aspects of musical creation. From song writing to playing the instruments to engineering. Born in rural Dominica West Indies, Zion’s musical landscape was shaped at an early age by the messages of perseverance, endurance and self and spiritual empowerment in the Roots Reggae Movement of the 70's. It was after moving to St. Croix, that Zion blew away a local music producer with songs like “United We Stand” and “Here Comes The Woman”. He demonstrated the depth and consciousness of an older soul trapped inside a humble and quiet 16 year old. “While everyone my age used to listen to more younger popular music, I was drawn to conscious Reggae music. I never really choose to do music- it was just inside of me. Once I learned to play the guitar as a teenager, it was like a natural thing. It was just Jah’s guidance”. Since immigrating to the United States, Zion’s music has spread from the Caribbean to the Southern and Midwestern states where he has built a sizable following as one of the few Caribbean artists in these Hip Hop dominated communities. Performing at events such as The Texas Summer Music Conference and The Hip Hop Action Summit Network. With his sights set on the seasoned Caribbean audiences of the Northeast, Zion wowed the producers of New York’s premiere outdoor Reggae festival Irie Jamboree in 2005. So much so, that he was invited back to bring down the house again in 2006. Zion was the sole roots artist invited by Dancehall legend, Bounty Killer, to perform at the New York Launch of Saddle to the East 2006, where he won over scores of hardcore Dancehall fans. In 2017 Zion has release his latest album World Revolution. This album features musicans from around the world such as The Ital's drummer Ken Porter and Darshan Miller Master engineer.
“Zion words” My goal is to come back home to help my people to build infrastructures for the people who are in poverty, and spread the good vibes, My greatest accomplishment is recording at Tuff Gong Int’l Bob Marley’s studio in Jamaica.—– In 2006 Zion form a band calling the band Zion And The Lion Roots Band.
