A band of brothers

Bob Marley is known for his many powerful songs, but he also gave the world several very talented children.

In the late 1970s, Ziggy Marley, along with siblings Cedella, Stephen and Sharon Marley, comprised the Melody Makers, which earned international acclaim and released more than 10 albums.

As time progressed Ziggy and Stephen focused on solo careers, with Ziggy winning the Grammy award for Best Reggae Album thrice with the Melody Makers and twice as a solo act. He even got the Grammy award for the Best Musical Album for Children with Family Time in 2010.

Now, Ziggy has received a Grammy nomination for his latest album, Fly Rasta.
