Harder Than The Rock | The Story of Cimarons, the UK’s First Reggae Band coming to UK cinemas

Buzz, Film

Harder Than The Rock chronicles the incredible journey of Britain’s first reggae band, Cimarons. Formed by teenage Jamaican immigrants in a London bus shelter in 1967, the band were at the forefront of the reggae explosion in the 1970s. Thousands of miles from Jamaica, they brought excitement, experimentation, and sheer anticipation to Black British youth, connecting them to their roots and identity through their powerful music.

Cimarons collaborated with industry legends such as Bob Marley, Toots & the Maytals, Jimmy Cliff, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry, and even Paul McCartney, and are credited for shaping Brittish reggae as we know it.

Harder Than The Rock will be released in UK Cinemas from 3rd October
