No-maddz was formed as a Dub Poetry group in 2000. Comprising of Sheldon Sheppard, Everaldo Creary, Chris Gordon and Oneil Peart they are the only record holders of a perfect score in the annual Jamaica Cultural Development Commission’s performance arts festival. All members are recipients of the prestigious Jamaican Prime Minister Youth Award for excellence. The groups success in the JCDC festivals has open the doors to a professional career which has seen the No-maddz performing at concerts such as the Bob Marley One Love Concert, and the Miami Jamaica Independence Day Festival. The group is also an alumni member of the Billy Mystic led Jamnesia Jam sessions, which has spawned some of the 21 century’s most talented new artistes, Bands and Musicians. On the eve of their tenth anniversary the group recorded the debut album “The Trod”. Regarded as the first Jamaican produced Live Reggae album of the Millenium, it was recorded by Willy&Slim Entertainment at Finnigans Winery in the music district of Eastwood Park Gardens home to Stone Love, VP Records, Shaggy’s Big Yard Imprint, Beres Hammonds Harmony House amongst other prestigious labels and sound systems. Executive produced by Sheldon Shepherd and Lloyd Laing of The Reggae News Corporation, the live album was mixed by Willy&Slim and mastered by Kevin Levy of Appletree Studios. It is to be released jointly by Nomaddic Movements, the groups imprint, and The Reggae News Corporation and distributed worldwide by RED Entertainment Distribution. The album‘s recording has been hailed as one of the milestone moments in Reggae music history by the Jamaica Gleaner, and has been dubbed by some of the music industry’s most discerning critics as one of 2010’s much awaited summer Reggae albums.
