I-Taweh and the Reggae Lions

I-taweh, also known as Donavan “Danny Gitz” Cunningham, was born in the hills of St. Ann, Jamaica to Rupert and Ruby Cunningham. He was raised in the farming community of Prickly Pole, just a few miles from the home where Bob Marley grew in Nine Mile. I-taweh spent most of his childhood farming alongside his father and four siblings. As a youth, he began playing music with his family and friends. His musical career started shortly after his move from the country to Kingston in 1992, where he was given the name “Danny Gitz” because of his growing reputation as an outstanding musician.
