Legendary singer Judy Mowatt is one third of the world famous I-Threes, reggae’s most influential female singing group that provided backing vocals for the honorable Robert Nesta Marley (Bob Marley) in the 70’s.
Judy has also secured her place in history as the first female singer nominated for a Grammy Award in the reggae category for her ‘Working Wonders’ album in 1985. Her ‘Black Woman’ album which was released in 1980 is a classic that is considered one of the best reggae albums by a female artiste. She has also recorded hit singles ‘Many Are Called,’ ‘Black Woman’ and ‘I Shall Sing.’ Judy now sings gospel but pleases her audience with a mix of her earlier conscious hits.
In 1999, she received the Order of Distinction from the Jamaican government for her contribution to Jamaica’s music industry.
