The quintet are performing both individual hits and Bob Marley classics with a nod toward what would have been his 80th birthday in 2025. (Marley passed in 1981 at the age of 36 from an aggressive form of skin cancer.) The celebration also comes on the heels of the box office success of Bob Marley: One Love, the biographical drama musical starring Kingsley Ben-Adir as the iconic singer and songwriter. Since its release in February, it's grossed $177 million worldwide.
