"Some times accidents can be a good thing", recalls Ben original member of Tel-Aviv powerhouse reggae act DUB L.F.O, This is the story of an unassuming rock act turned seminal reggae trail blazers. It began when the 4 piece finished another typical set at the epic club (now defunct) Jah-Pan in Southern TLV. The club owner was so taken with their a-typical moves and hooks on a dub song that they topped the night off with, he invited them to headline a reggae festival two weeks later. The problem was: They never really thought of themselves as a reggae band, nor did they have enough material to fill a set. The next morning the band woke up early, hung over and inspired...they locked themselves in a basement (shelter) for two weeks straight and built the foundations of what would become "Back To The Jungle". 14 days later, they emerged with 12 new songs, crystallized and powerful...Yes; this is the story of a band that is steppin' out of Zion, the original lions'.
Those 14 days underground, sparked a fire through out the country. Dozens of National festival requests and radio interviews ensured, and it wasn't long before word spread again; this time to music festivals through out Europe. Organizers of "Fete del Musique" & Szgiet (The Largest Festival In Europe 800,000 revelers per year) were quick to recognize DUB's talent.
What is the band about: "The essence of DUB L.F.O is really the live show...its' about making bodies move while delivering a message that that speaks to the heart of the reggae soul...truth, passion, freedom, overcoming the Babylon." - Roi Avital (front man of the group). Already thousands of people have been affected by the sound and minds of DUB L.F.O; Their music has even been described by some critics as the answer to epic dub producer Adrian Sherwood's staple "Becoming A Cliche"
DUB L.F.O is now playing dozens of show's back in the original Zion (Israel) and putting the finishing touches on their second release, (Untitled as of yet). The band is planning several tours at the beginning of 2010' in Europe and USA.
