David Hillyard & The Rocksteady Seven formed in New York in 1992. Their self-described "Jamaican Jazz" sound combines ska, rocksteady and reggae with extended jazz improvisation, intricate melodies, and complex harmonies. The group incorporates many diverse elements of world music with rocksteady rhythms, including ska, jazz, calypso, as well as Afrobeat and American jazz influences.
