About
Seattle's Roots Rock Reggae Band.
Wet City Rockers is a Seattle‑born roots reggae band formed in the mid‑2000s, known for its dub‑infused sound and a brief but influential presence in the local reggae scene.
Origins in Seattle’s Reggae Underground
The band emerged when Micah Averiett set out to create a rootsy, dubby reggae project while living in Seattle. Micah Averiett teamed up with Bill Patton, with whom he had previously played in the reggae‑fusion group Jamaina Heights.
A simple classified ad in The Stranger brought in early members, including Daniel (drums) and Norman (bass) and in later years, Jarrett Mason (Bass), Brandon Hunter (trombone), and Tim Conroy (Keys and Trumpet) and others.
