Wednesday July 20, 2022 was Reggae Night at the Empire State Plaza, part of the free Capital Concert Series. Thousands came out to be part of the show, whether it was sitting on the museum steps or dancing in front of the stage.

The night began legendary reggae artist King Yellowman featuring K'reema and the Sagittarius Band. Afterward, the iconic Jamaican sounds of Inner Circle heated things up even more with their hits 'Bad Boys', 'Sweat' and 'Summer Jammin'.
