When N.L. Dennis was singing in a recording studio with Toots and the Maytals, Bob Marley stopped by to listen. Marley praised Dennis's delivery. Today, Dennis lives in his native Jamaica and joins hundreds of Jamaicans who come to Vermont every summer in search of better paying work. Most of them work on vegetable farms and at apple orchards. Dennis works as a reggae musician. He will perform a free concert on July 7 at 6 p.m. outside the Hooker Dunham Theater in Brattleboro.
On July 16, Dennis will play a free concert at the Putney, Vermont farmers' market at 11 a.m.
