From the rolling hills of Upstate New York, Will Of The People combines technical and musical with instrumental dub reggae. His deep love of roots reggae and dub was cultivated in an unlikely area largely in part by growing up with the music of Upstate NY reggae legends John Brown's Body, Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad, 10 Ft. Ganja Plant, Thunder Body, Mosaic Foundation and Root Shock. Will picked up drums and guitar at an early age and learned the bass and keyboard while studying audio recording at Finger Lakes Community College. After graduating, Will started collecting enough gear from pawn shops and craigslist to create his own original reggae and dub recordings. The musical recording process is documented on his social media accounts with videos that show him playing all instruments and live mixing the end result in one take. Other major influences include Pachyman, Augustus Pablo, Jackie Mittoo, King Tubby & Scratch Perry.
