After a wonderful summer that brought to Europe a rich list of great artists, the Italian massive is already looking forward another great reggae season. And there’s no better way to start it with a great artist like Chuck Fender.

Currently touring Europe baked by the House of Riddim band, the “poor people defender”, performed on November 29^th in Marghera (Venice-Italy). The show took place at Rivolta P.V.C., a self-managed social centre, where the music is the first aim.

Chuck Fender is an American Reggae musician and deejay born in Brooklyn in 1972 but raised in Jamaica. His musical career began in 1996 with the released of his first singles. His debut album 'Better Days', was released in 2004, two years after his conversion to the Rastafarian religion.

The reggae night at Rivolta begun with the Italian reggae artist Jah Farmer, that opened the show and warmed the audience presenting his first work 'Fearless'.

It was about midnight when the musicians of the House of Riddim band came on stage, and after a while Mr “The Living Fire” Chuck Fender jumped out!!

The Italian massive could enjoy with some of his greatest hits, and also with some tunes he performed on some very famous riddims.

The vibes were great and Chuck was so hyperactive jumping and dancing! It was a great show, and even if the lights on stage were not perfect, we could enjoy with a great performance.

After the show Chuck Fender came for a little bit among the audience and met his fans! He’s not only a great singer but also a great man! Blessed love to the poor people defender…
