Affiliated to the Jamaican culture of the seventies, Tu Shung Peng is a reggae collective born in 1998 in the south of Paris, composed of 9 passionate musicians. After the resounding success of their previous albums, they unveil their 5th album, named “Channel 5”. A true homage to Jamaican culture, but also the fruit of several years of musical production and human encounters made in Jamaica over time.
