After a brief stint at their Hawaiian home with welcoming sold-out shows, The Green is ready to embark on another extensive North American tour kicking off in February. The Green’s upcoming 39-city mainland tour sees the band share the stage with fellow leading reggae artists Rebelution and SOJA.

The majority of the tour dates are alongside Rebelution for their “Peace of Mind Tour.” Rebelution are currently riding high with a #13 debut on the Billboard Top 200 and The Green are proud to support their highly anticipated tour. All three of these acts continue to push the “homegrown reggae” scene forward.

2011 was another breakthrough year for The Green. Their second album Ways & Means (released on Easy Star Records) stayed at #1 on the Billboard Reggae chart for 4 straight weeks in a row, while receiving high profile press exposure. They were also awarded “Artist of the Year” by The DubSide and their album was nominated for “Album of the Year” at The Pier. The band relentlessly toured throughout the year winning new fans and regional press accolades.
