Reggae & Dub: Good Vibes Playlist
Last Updated on August 13, 2019
Are you ready to jam with us? Because here at Homestead and Chill, reggae is definitely our jam. Don’t get me wrong! We enjoy listening to a wide variety of other genres too. If you tuned into the H&C pilot playlist, you got a taste of that there. However, reggae holds a special place in our souls.
For your listening pleasure, and just in time for 4/20, here is a mix of our favorite 113 reggae and dub songs! Most of you probably know this already, but reggae isn’t all about ganja and Bob Marley. Sure, they’re awesome too, and go hand-in-hand with the genre, but it is SO much more than that!
Reggae is the ultimate good-vibes music.
Reggae is what puts the “chill” in our Homestead and Chill. I don’t know about you, but I find it pretty damn difficult to be in a bad mood when you’re grooving to such positive music, messages, and beats. In addition to gardening, music is our therapy. It is also one the few things that gets us away from the house on the weekends ~ for reggae concert dates! Slightly Stoopid, Tribal Seeds, Fortunate Youth, and Rebelution are touring this summer. See if they’re coming to your town!
In this playlist you’ll find some of the classics, a bit of modern Cali-reggae, plus some dub and fusion remixes too. Without further ado, check out the track list, YouTube, and Spotify below. I hope you dig it.

Love the music you play! My kids were jammin’ along to your stories this morning, so, I’m gonna get these tunes going in my own garden! Thanks for all the time you take to share your life with us, Deanna! You’re a true gem ❤️
DeannaCat
Sweet! It really is the best gardening music! I will be putting together a blues/jazz/classical mix soon too. Have a great weekend!

Thank you so much for sharing. Listening at work keeps me calm and chill. I look forward to every blog. Thank you for all your plant and garden knowledge! I am learning and applying so many things.
Rachel Wheeler
Yay! I recently commented on one of your YouTube videos asking about what music you had in the background! You’re my new favorite inspiration. <3 Thanks for all you do <3
DeannaCat
Hi Rachel – I’m so glad you found this! Sorry about missing you YouTube question! I sometimes forget to check the comments over there in addition to here, Instagram, etc. Lol! Thanks for tuning in, and enjoy!
Kari Cameron
Hi Deanna! Thanks for the recommendation 🙂 Is there a specific (or a few) Pandora Stations you like that incorporate alot of these songs? I don’t have Spotify, but would love to find some good, new Pandora stations. I’ve never really listened to reggae, but love everything I hear on your videos and would like to listen to more! 🙂
DeannaCat
Hey there! We primarily use Pandora too! But not many pre-made stations. We create stations by feeding artist names into them and curate over time with thumbs up/down… But you may want to try “Cali Reggae”. Also, feed something like like Stick Figure, Fortunate Youth, Slightly Stoopid, and 10 Ft Ganja Plant into a station together for a great start on a custom one! Happy listening! I am glad you’re enjoying it.
