Atlanta, get ready to feel the vibration. On April 26, 2026, Variety Playhouse will transform into a sanctuary of conscious reggae when the incomparable Protoje takes the stage. This is not your average Sunday night show — this is a musical experience that will move your body, shake your soul, and remind you why live music in this city hits different.

Who Is Protoje?

If you haven't been riding with Protoje, now is your moment to get locked in. The Jamaican singer, songwriter, and producer has been one of the most important voices in modern reggae for over a decade, blending classic roots traditions with a razor-sharp contemporary edge. Albums like Ancient Future, A Matter of Time, and In Search of Lost Time have earned him international acclaim, Grammy nominations, and a global fanbase that spans generations.

Protoje isn't just making music — he's building a movement. As the founder of the OurTime collective and a champion of Jamaica's next generation of artists, he carries the culture forward with every song. His lyrics cut deep, touching on love, identity, resistance, and consciousness in a way that feels both timeless and urgently relevant.

Why Variety Playhouse Is the Perfect Venue

Let's talk about the venue, because Variety Playhouse in Little Five Points is one of Atlanta's crown jewels. Intimate, historic, and acoustically brilliant, it's the kind of room where artists and audiences connect on a different level. When Protoje's basslines roll through those walls, you're going to feel it in your chest. This isn't a massive arena show where you're watching someone on a screen — this is face-to-face, up-close, real-deal live music the way it was meant to be experienced.

What to Expect on April 26

Fans who make it out to Variety Playhouse can look forward to:

  • A setlist pulling from Protoje's deep and beloved catalog of roots reggae anthems
