No Jamaican singing duo has enjoyed as resilient, prolific, and successful a partnership as Keith Rowe and Phillip "Tex" Dixon. Known worldwide for their 1967 signature hit "Stop That Train" (a cover of the Spanishtonians 1965 ska song) and other original mega-popular anthems from the rocksteady era like "Tonight," Keith and Tex, who befriended each other as teenagers, have been using the last two decades to make up for lost time-a near thirty-year stretch during which they were apart-separated due to divergent twists of fate including Keith's immigration to the United States, and later, Tex's to Canada. 

Since reuniting in the 1990s, Keith and Tex have toured the world to rousing ovations, performing their classic, always-sought-after old-school standards. Not content to rest on their laurels, Keith and Tex have continually been honing their craft, turning out new songs at a jaw-dropping pace- timeless compositions with beautiful harmonies and sophisticated lyrics; in some cases, Keith and Tex's songs edgily confront serious social issues of the day, and, in all cases, they unabashedly promote conscious, clean, cool and collected, civic-minded living and love-as love has always has been a major theme of rocksteady and always will be.
