Trevor Bow

Enigmatic reggae singer Trevor Bow (born Kingston, Jamaica) formed vocal trio Sons Of Jah in Trenchtown, Kingston Jamaica, back in 1976. Throughout his career Bow has been assisted by a variety of vocalists, including Derrick Donaldson, Bunny MacKenzie, Deego Reuben and Howard Haughton. Bow’s long-standing friendship with Bob Marley And The Wailers resulted in recording sessions at Tuff Gong Studios, ably assisted by the drum and bass duo of Carlton ‘Carly’ Barrett and Aston ‘Familyman’ Barrett. By 1978 Bow had set up his own Natty Congo label. Sons Of Jah released 4 albums as a vocal group and built a loyal following. It was not until 1985 that news of the band’s demise surfaced. Undeterred by the events, Bow performed solo as the Son Of Jah, returning to Tuff Gong to record his albums Writings On The Wall and Urban Guerilla. Sadly Trevor Bow was brutally murdered in Kingston on April 24th 1993.
