Toots and the Maytals, originally known simply as The Maytals are an internationally popular Reggae band that fuse elements of Soul, Rock and Ska into a unique musical concoction. Led by lead singer Frederick "Toots" Hibbert, the Maytals were one of the most popular bands of the early Jamaican Reggae scene - with hits such as "Pressure Drop", "Sweet and Dandy" and "Monkey Man". While they were eventually eclipsed by the massive success of Bob Marley and the Wailers, Toots & the Maytals have continued to write, record and tour the world.
