This Richmond reggae band has grabbed some attention with their soulful, organ-driven sound and creative percussion rhythms. Regular gigs at Martini Kitchen’s Reggae Mondays and other clubs around town are winning them a lot of fans. But they aren’t just a good-time party band–they keep reggae’s protest-music tradition alive in the lyrics to songs like “African Nation” and “One Decision,” from their 2008 album Do Something. During the RVA Music Fest, Antero will perform on Stage Two at the Main Event on Sunday September 11.
