Tonight was Marley's big night. Concert night.
When Marley and her family make the move from warm, vibrant Jamaica to Delaware, she's prepared for life to change. She's confident that she and her siblings--Sharon, Ziggy, and little Steve--can make new friends, as long as her musical debut goes off without a hitch.
