Fans can always get little, albeit different, slices of Bob Marley anytime one his musical offspring hits the stage. But as what would have been Bob’s 80th birthday approaches, five of his sons are on a 22-date “Legacy Tour” where Ziggy, Stephen, Damian, Julian and Ky-Mani (collective winners of 28 Grammys) come together for a traveling family reunion.

The setlist, produced by Stephen, celebrates dad’s legendary catalog, and arrives this week in a state that was very much a refuge for Bob who recorded Rastaman Vibrations in Miami nearly five decades ago.

The show is the first time the brothers have performed together in two decades, so expect the love to run deep.

Tickets for the Marley Brothers Legacy Tour at MidFlorida Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa, Florida on Friday, Oct. 4 are still available and start at $40.50.
