Forming in the winter 2005, Jah Rad immediately took the underground, white, suburban, reggae scene by storm. They released their first demo in January of 2006, followed by their first EP, The Jahs of Life, in October of 2007. Their staple song, "Zion Calling," almost immediately shot Jah Rad into Marin Reggae stardom with its catchy bass line and even more catchy chorus. Other songs such as "I-and-I" and "Blessed" have become favorites of both high school and college kids in the greater Marin area. Since its formation, Jah Rad has gathered somewhat of a cult following, they dub themselves the "Jah Rats." The Jah Rats are die hard fans that continue to show support in all of Jah Rad's endeavors.
