Court Denies Preliminary Injunction Against People Production and the Dimmick Ranch Reggae Rising Music Festival Moves Forward Unencumbered

Ziggy, Stephen, and Damian Marley Added to Lineup

HUMBOLDT COUNTY, Calif., April 27 /PRNewswire/ -- The honorable Judge Bruce Watson denied the Mateel Community Center's request for a preliminary injunction against: People Productions, the Dimmick Ranch, and the Reggae Rising Music Festival. This highly-anticipated ruling clears the way for the Reggae Rising Music Festival to move forward unencumbered to bring you the best reggae festival of the summer.

The festival will benefit the Southern Humboldt community and carry on the 23 year tradition of being one of the largest fundraisers for its non-profits. Reggae Rising will take place on August 3rd, 4th and 5th at the Dimmick Ranch and French's Camp in Piercy, California and will feature three days of camping and world renowned reggae music, situated along the picturesque Eel River.

This year's festival is dedicated to the "MUSIC" and the lineup promises to be unparalleled. We're proud to announce that ZIGGY MARLEY, STEPHEN MARLEY, and DAMIAN MARLEY have just been added. Each Marley brother will be performing their own set, backed by their own band. This is a first in the history of the Marley brothers!!! In a recent interview, with the Eureka-Times Standard, Stephen Marley was asked: "T-S: As a performer, is that just another show, or is there a special vibe to that place?" Stephen: "No, it's not just another show. As you say, it's not really so much the name as the atmosphere, the people and the vibe. That's why it's not just another show, why it's special. It's just free. The vibe always free spirited, ya know? Down by the river, visit the people and pitch their tents. That type of free lifestyle, that, you know what I mean? When you hear my father say (singing), 'why can't we roam this open country,' it always remind me of that type of vibe, ya know, just being. You pitch your tent, the river is there, ya know, and the greenery, and the scenery. It get no better than that. So, it's not just another concert, but at the same time, it's not the name of it, really, but the vibe of it."
