Next Wednesday, (t-minus one day to Turkey Day) get ready to gobble-gobble-ganja, as local South Bay reggae heroes, Fortunate Youth, return to their Hermosa Beach stomping grounds for their 3rd annual 'Turkey Jam' show at Saint Rocke, with supporting acts True Press, Reeform, and Roots of Mine.

Things should be heating up nicely (bongs and body heat alike), because reggae tends to draw a large crowd in the Hermosa scene.

This has been a big year for Fortunate Youth. The band released their third Full Length Album "It's All A Jam" on March 19, 2013, and it quickly rose to #1 on both Billboard and iTunes reggae charts.
