Artist / The 501 Collective

A Belizean artist carrying passion, culture, and originality from the 501 to the world.

J. Cas is our flagship artist. And we'll say it plain: there is no voice in Belize like his. Natural talent you can't teach, a sound you know in one note. He's going big places, and this is only the beginning. He chose the 501, and we're honored he did.

Behind him on every stage: Agents of Groove, his band and his brothers in sound.

J. Cas and Agents of Groove opened for Skip Marley and Tarrus Riley at the Belize Music World Festival. That's the stage they're built for.
