As 2014 approaches we thank all our friends and loyal fans for supporting the Live Reggae NYC Network and in particular our NY Reggae Blog designed as a comprehensive guide to the events we highly recommend and think you'd enjoy!

Those of you who have been with us from the start of this blog in 2012 know that we've quickly learned and gone from sporadic to comprehensive in-depth coverage of high-quality events on the NY tri-state scene and too, wherever the music takes us! If you are newly joining us we certainly hope you've made the NY Reggae Blog your guide to finding area events and that you'll recommend us to all your friends. Next year expect an interesting journey filled with surprises as we head in new directions to bring you more of the great coverage you've come to expect.  To that end your feedback has been instrumental in helping us to further develop a high-quality lineup and in 2014 we encourage you to continue sharing your thoughts. 

We would be negligent in not extending our sincere thanks to our great alliance partners and supporters for standing by our sides without fail 24/7 all year round including: ReggaeReflection.com, Reggaeholics.com, Turntable Productions, TheReggaeVibe.com, HaitianAllstarz.com, Pickney Promotions, Rebellion City Productions, TheNightVisions.com, DJ Vaughn Allstar (King Crown/ "Eastern Standard Time" WKCR 89.9FM), DJ Styff (Strugglers Movement), DJ MushOne ("Tunnel One" WNYU 89.1FM), Vinny B.

As the new year approaches the Live Reggae NYC team  extends to you, your family and friends our sincere hopes for a safe and love overflowing New Year!
