In 1984, while still in school, Stamina, along with other like minded youths began laying the ground work for the band Jah Vibes. Today the band still exists with Stamina as an integral part of its existence. Stamina feels more fulfillment with a microphone in hand and an audience feasting on his infectious lyrics and electrifying performance. His energetic style and rustic lyrics is always a good infusion to stimulate musical appetites anywhere. To date, Stamina has shared stages with reggae stalwarts like: Buju Banton, Shabba Ranks, Singing Melody, Sugar Minott, The Wailers and many others.
