Bio
Connecting Routes came into being in autumn 1989 and were formed by Tsagazahab who is the Songwriter, the Singer and Visionary force of the band. In the past 15 years the band has toured extensively in Europe and England as a support act and as headliners in their own right. They've performed gigs at all major Universities and supported many of Jamaica's finest Reggae groups.
They also supported "Hawkwind" on several occasions during their formative years which led to a good relationship being developed between the two bands. As the music developed they realised that more time and energy was needed to maintain and improve themelves. So they made an agreement that they would sacrifice all that is necessary for the betterment of music. We secured a European Tour with "Steel Pulse" and made ready for the work ahead. It was October 1991 when the tour kicked off. The first gigs were in the United Kingdom, Aberdeen in Scotland being a memorable one. We worked from the north down to the south playing major cities till we crossed the channel. Over a period of six weeks we toured various European countries and played at venues such as : Zenith in France, The Paradiso in Holland, Shutzenhauser Switzerland, Pattamata in Italy and various other places.
Reggae is a music of truth and we will continue to be the voice of the oppressed, the downtrodden, the homeless, the hungry, the shelterless, the motherless, fatherless, the aged, widows, the affirm and the orphans.
