Jah Spirit

Group

We are confused. Every other entry on the Hackney plaque is the name of an individual who has died. For 'Jah Spirit' all we can find is a group with 5 members, formed in 1984 and, 2023, still performing (in America, we think).  We messaged their website and will report back if we get any information.
