Remembering My father, Aston “Familyman” Barre

Remembering My father, Aston “Familyman” Barrett
Today would have been my father’s Earthstrong. This year has been hard for me and my family since losing him, but I feel his presence every day through the music and the lessons he taught me.
He wasn’t just my father—he was a pioneer and the foundation of reggae. I’m proud to carry on his legacy and keep his spirit alive through The Wailers.
Happy Earthstrong, Dad. Your basslines and your love will always guide me.

October 2, 1979 – A pivotal moment in reggae history. Bob Marley & The Wailers unveiled the Survival album, an anthem of resilience, unity, and the fight against oppression. With African flags gracing the cover, it spoke directly to the struggles of nations across the continent. Tracks like “Africa Unite,” “Zimbabwe,” and “So Much Trouble In The World” still echo through time, carrying their messages of empowerment and change.

Survival remains a call for freedom and unity that resonates just as strongly today.
