Witness

"The Witness" is one of UKs most prolific Gospel Reggae/Dancehall artists, with a string of awards and achievements to garnish his 10 year career which has seen him perform to varied audiences in the UK and abroad.



Witness grew up in Lee Bank, Birmingham. He had a deep love for music from an early age, with a particular slant towards Reggae/Dancehall. He grew up listening to artists including, Papa San, Shabba Ranks, Tiger, Ninga man and Lieutenant Stitchie.



By his mid teens, Witness started to lose focus in life and also began to fall away from the Education system getting himself into scrapes with the Police. As time went on, teenage life for Witness became one of survival as he found himself without any direction and felt there was very little support structure around him.



By age 17, The Witness had a life changing experience when he became a Born Again Christian. His focus and direction began to change as he diverted his energies away from the negative aspects of his lifestyle changing them into positive.



His love for music remained and he soon began writing songs which were positive and inspiring causing listeners of all ages and backgrounds to be uplifted and encouraged.



Due to his humorous character and his ability to inspire audiences he began to receive invitations, initially for events in Birmingham and the West Midlands. His demand grew and he soon found himself travelling across the UK and abroad.
