Get ready, Eugene! Steel Pulse is coming to McDonald Theatre/Eugene, Oregon on Thursday, October 8th!

The Grammy-award-winning band Steel Pulse emerged from the UK reggae scene of the 1970s and
quickly became one of the genre’s most respected bands. They have inspired generations of fans and
activists worldwide. The Reggae Against Racism – World Tour 2026 continues that legacy –
“as music out of the UK highlights it’s 50th anniversary of combating racism, do join us in bringing people together
with social consciousness through Rhythm, Resistance and Hope.”

Bearing witness to the accelerating negativity of global affairs, British reggae powerhouse Steel Pulse exemplify musical vengeance to halt the disarray of humanity. Steel Pulse songs and lyrics continue to engage controversial topics of racial injustice and human rights on a global scale. Themes are as potent and relevant today as they were at the beginning of their career.

Hailing from Birmingham, England, Steel Pulse emerged in 1975 with music that provokes thought toward global unification. Songs like “Chant a Psalm” have landed on Rolling Stone’s Top 200 Best Songs list of the 1980s, and the six-time Grammy nominated group won the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album for Babylon the Bandit. Lead singer and guitarist, David Hinds’ creativity, human persona, and visionary views are revealed through inspiring compositions that capture the effects of the African Diaspora. As reggae revolutionaries, Steel Pulse is revered by the younger generation of artists and remains a powerhouse on stages around the globe.
