      Critically acclaimed Reggae artist, Roland Kemokai is a performing singer, songwriter, composer, guitarist, pianist, bassist, producer, published author, and mentor to many!

      Most notably, frontman/lead singer for the 12-year established premier roots reggae band, NECHERU (formerly known as Roland & The Roots Riddim).

      Born in Liberia, West Africa, Roland Kemokai survived a harrowing beginning—abandoned as an infant, growing up around deep struggle amidst the Liberian civil war, he relied on extraordinary resilience, inner strength, and the healing power of music to endure and rise above his circumstances.

      Shaped by these life experiences, Roland creates music centered on empowerment, social justice, release and renewal, community connection, positive mindset, and the untapped greatness within each of us. He has written, composed, and released numerous pieces, including full albums and singles, all available on major streaming platforms under his name.

      To learn more about his remarkable journey, readers can explore his book, SUNUMA — Discarded Baby Triumphs to Tell His Story, available at the Round Rock Public Library as well as through major bookstores, both in digital and print formats.
