Dub As A Weapon is a Brooklyn-based live dub project founded in 2001 by Dave Hahn with a mission to translate studio dub techniques to the stage. Known for blending reggae, world rhythms, and psychedelic Afrobeat influences, the project has built a reputation for immersive, groove-driven performances that feel both classic and experimental. The band has served as a backing group for the legendary Lee Scratch Perry on North American tours, connecting the roots of dub with bold, contemporary soundscapes.
