Baltimores is a singer/MC based in Marseille. He has been super active on stage and
in the studio, able to adapt and juggle multiples music styles with several bands. He
decided to get back to what he loves the most : reggae/dub.
Baltimores rapidly made a name for himself in the sound system and Dub UK world
thanks to collabs with Dub Foundry, Massilia Hi-Fi, After All Sound Sytem, Kandee,
Jah Works Promotion, Boom Hi-Fi, Mass-I Sound, Jungle Weed to name a few...
Able to switch between rub a dub, fast style, singing… and to ride roots as much as
digital or stepper dub. He is part of that new generation of french artists making a
point of singing in jamaican patois/english which he perfected through his travel to
Jamaica.
Baltimores had the privilege to share the stage with established MCs like Charlie P,
Murray Man, Prince David, Brother Culture, Joseph Cotton, El Fata, Madu
Messenger, Green Cross… as well as being on the line up alongside Manu Digital,
Dubmatix, Brain Damage, Biga Ranx, Krak in Dub, Mahom, Ashkabad, Natural High
Dubs, Fabasstone, Dawa Hi-Fi, Moa Ambessa, Bhale Bacce Crew, Brainless Sound,
Dubkasm…
In 2019 he appeared on the track « Heroes » from the album Deepest from Wicked
Dub Division and toured around Italy with them and Dubdadda.
In 2020, he released his first solo album « Study Trip », on which he was also
beatmaker and composed all of his instumentals himself.
The same year he came up with the EP « Four Shades of Dub » featuring the dub
makers duo Ashkabad.
During the summer of 2021, he made some notable appearances on stage (Delta
Festival, Le Baou, Roots du Lac, Reggae Family…) including some sounds systems
sessions (Dub Station Festival, Watt à Bar…).
Baltimores has also partnered with Ashkabad on stage several times like in October
2021 at L'Athanor in Albi, at l'Espace des arts in Pradet and during the Aftrwrk Online
