Biography of Shasha Marley


Shasha Marley has been singing since he was a teenager and has since been amazing audiences with his talents.

SHASHA comes on stage in a hood over a matching cassock and a sash. Described as the MONK ON THE LOOSE, he lets out his captivating voice and takes over the stage with an incredible stage show. Ingenuity and sheer prowess characterize his performances.

He has recorded alongside several top artists and has won several awards to his credit. When the Hall of Fame multi Grammy Awards winner, Isaac Hayes heard his music, he said “Wow, this brother is pure talent, he and I are going to do great things together”, and sure enough, they have.

He has also led 15 top Ghanaian artists in an all star musical collaboration which was produced via the sponsorship of the Johns Hopkins University as a benefit against HIV/AIDS in Africa. He is truly a musician with a heart and has really been on a forefront of the war against HIV/AIDS using music to break stigma as he goes from village to village touching orphans.

Growing up, SHASHA was inspired by such great artists as Bob Marley, Winston Rodney (Burning Spear), Steel Paulse, Jimmy Cliff, Nelson Mandela and many others.

Tell Freedom, which was SHASHA’S debut album hit the charts as soon as it was released. This was followed by several other recordings which has done equally well on the African Music scene. During the first Miss Universe (Ghana) Beauty pageant show organized by Media Touch Productions and Essence International, SHASHA tore the house down with his exclusive performance.

He was also invited by the Libyan leader, Muammar al- Gadhafi to perform to all African Presidents during the last Organization of African Unity (OAU) summit, held in Tripoli in the year 2001.

SHASHA MARLEY has performed to tourists and music lovers at all the entertainment spots and centers both home and abroad, but it was his debut album that ironically placed him on the African musical map.

SHASHA’S stage monk-like outfit is credited to the Franciscan Friars. He finds the life of Saint Francis of Assisi very interesting. Although the Saint was very wealthy, he left the comfort of his home to live with the poor and the needy in the slum, to fight for the cause of the poor.
So far Shasha Marley has not relented in his pursuit to make a difference in this world through his dynamic songs. He is ever more determined to change and transform lives all over the world.

He's up-coming project testifies to it. He hopes to help revolutionze his country through the up-coming full-lenggth CD.
