Berkeley’s 7th Street Band has made its name backing some of the greats and new voices of reggae.  While 7th Street Band has been hitting West Coast stages for over a decade, drummer Edi Arnold and keyboardist Benjamin Goff, friends since high school, have played together since 1992. Edi, as founding member and Ben, as his right hand man have been the foundation and executive producers of all 7th Street works.

7th Street Band has been called one of the Bay Area’s best-kept musical secrets and has backed many top touring Reggae vocalists, including Sanchez, Gappy Ranks, Glenn Washington, Konshens, Warrior King, Marlon Asher, Louie Culture and Million Stylez.  Over the years, 7th Street has worked with over 50 different dynamic vocalists including: Reemah, Blakkamoore, Arkaingelle, Mega Banton, Norris Man, Junior Toots, Danny I, Army, Rocker T, Wadi Gad, Tuff Lion, Earl Zero, Winstrong, Binghi Ghost and the late, great Luv Fyah. Mony Lujan of Dubwize, on bass since 2010, rounds out the trio that makes up the heart of 7th St. Band.
