In 1980 Wobble left PiL to pursue a solo career, releasing his debut album THE LEGEND LIVES ON … JAH WOBBLE IN BETRAYAL that same year, followed by a string of acclaimed solo albums throughout the 1980s and 1990s.
His solo work continued to showcase his unique style alongside his interest in world music, particularly African and Middle Eastern music. He has also collaborated with a wide range of musicians, including Brian Eno, Bjork and Sinead O’Connor, and formed several bands, including Jah Wobble’s Invaders Of The Heart and Jan Wobble & The Chinese Dub Orchestra. His music has been and remains highly influential, particularly in the areas of dub and world music, and his innovative playing style and ability to blend diverse musical styles into a cohesive whole continue to receive accolades.
