Local beach blanket reggae musician Fitzroy, a.k.a. Jason Jeffers, dredlocked Barbados transplant, ex-Miami Herald reporter, and man about town, has posted his first music video on YouTube.

Jeffers also has this bio about his latest album, Paradise Low, where he confirms our suspicions that he might be the rootsiest man in Miami. --Emily Witt
