Bob Marley: One Love + Roundtable Discussion

Behind the Scenes Stories and Insights from Marley's Experts Bob Marley's legacy stands as a timeless testament to the power of music in transcending borders and inspiring social change. His iconic sound, characterised by infectious rhythms and poignant lyrics, became a global symbol of unity, love, and resistance. To celebrate the launch of the brand new studio biopic Bob Marley: One Love, Regent Street Cinema and the University of Westminster are hosting a very special event honouring one of music’s greatest pioneers. Following a screening of Bob Marley: One Love, guests are invited to participate in a roundtable discussion moderated by Dr. Mykaell Riley, the Director of the Black Music Research Unit (BMRU) and Reader in Music Production Performance & Business at the University of Westminster. Explore the cultural impact of Bob Marley through a unique lens, featuring behind-the-scenes insights from experts like Adrian Boot, Island Records' in-house photographer during Marley's era, journalist Chris Salewicz, and Bernie Dixon, the former manager of Aswad and a childhood friend of Bob Marley. Join us as we celebrate this enduring icon whose impact on music, culture and social justice remains as relevant today as it was during his prolific career.
