FORTUNATE YOUTH IN CONCERT:

Fortunate Youth are a blast to watch in concert as they deliver animated live performances that showcase their blend of classic dub and surf reggae. All six members demonstrate stunning artistry with strong melodies, boisterous guitar solos, island-inspired  percussion, and nifty vintage organ sounds. Especially captivating is frontman Dan Kelly, whose unique voice is raspy, soulful, and passionate as he belts lyrics that advocate a sunny state of mind. With feel-good favorites like "Sweet Love", "Positive", and "Peace, Love and Unity" propelling their sets to epic heights, Fortunate Youth always treat ticket buyers to a blissful concert experiences they won't soon foret.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

In 2009 six members from two different Los Angeles-based reggae bands -- Rudeboy Roots and Irie State of Mind -- teamed up to form the supergroup Fortunate Youth. They made their recording debut with the 2010 EP Up-Lifted before releasing their first full-length album, 2011's Irie State Of Mind. In 2012 they toured heavily alongside acts including The Expendables, Tribal Seeds, Dirty Heads, and The Wailers, earning a reputation as a must-see live band. A year later they released their critically acclaimed sophomore album It's A Jam, a rootsy collection of reggae tracks with that rose to No. 1 on Billboard's Reggae Charts and iTunes' Reggae Charts. With a new album in the works and a rapidly growing fanbase, Fortunate Youth continue to deliver joyous and unmissable live performances.

    Great show

    by Felisha on 5/14/24Bernie's Beach Bar - Hampton Beach

    I expected the show to be amazing after seeing these guys on SugarShack Sessions but WOW did this exceed our expectations. Sorry that 90% of the crowd was too drunk to show more enthusiasm and applaud the performers like they should have.

    LOVE

    by Kat 💕 on 4/9/24

    I love FY. Dan Kelly and the guys put out so much energy, spreading their positivity, love and kindness to everyone in the audience. I've seen them 5 times and can't wait til they come close to Pennsylvania so i can see them again! The last show I seen was amazing, towards the end DK lifted a young girl suffering of cancer up on stage for her to join in. The band embraced her, letting her sing along. Awesome People! One Love ❤️
