Legend Tour and Wailers Reunited (2014–2016)

In 2015, Barrett began the process of reuniting past members of the Wailers, using the name the Wailers Reunited. Shows occurred in South America which included former members such as Marvin, Anderson, and Tyrone Downie. That year, the Wailers Band performed in India for the first time. A US and UK tour took place in 2016, after which Barrett retired from the group; despite this, he would be included as an official member well into 2020. His son and drummer, Aston Barrett Jr., took over as leader of the Wailers Band, while his student, Owen "Dreadie" Reid, took over on bass.
