Artist description They have the umbrella in their name, but this doesn't mean their music is dreary or boring. Yellow Umbrella is the reggae and ska band No.1 from Dresden/Germany. Their music stands for the sun, heat and rhythms that make you sweat. On their way through the clubs, Yellow Umbrella spreads this Jamaican live feeling since 1994. Warm reggae with hit potential and grooving ska will hit your ears, heart and feet and make you dance. This explosive mixture made them many fans in the german ska and reggae scene. According to "SOUNDCHECK", they are the most interesting band from Dresden, and probably they become the most interesting band from germany, cause REGGAE IS THE WEAPON OF THE FUTURE!
