Duane Stephenson for Guyana this christmas

Quite upbeat from a recent Fort Lauderdale gig where he was accompanied by the very talented Black Soil band, and which also featured Tarrus Riley and Dean Frazer, reggae crooner Duane Stephenson, is looking forward to thrilling his Caribbean fans as the hectic Yuletide season begins to take shape.

The singer is booked for shows in the twin-island republic of Trinidad and Tobago and also Guyana, two markets which have a solid, long-standing relationship with the man from August Town. Duane is more than ready to take his soothing, conscious lyrics to Trinidad where will perform at Culture Reggae Fest, scheduled for the popular Queen’s Park Savannah.

Billed as “the biggest culture concert to end the year in Trinidad and Tobago”, Culture Reggae Fest also showcases reggae heavyweights Luciano, Everton Blender and Bushman, alongside Trinidad and Tobago’s best, including Jamelody, Isasha, Prophet Benjamin and others.

 

He will leave Trinidad and head to Guyana, where the Georgetown Football Association will kick off the Caribbean Inter-Club Football Series, and will use the opportunity to fuse music and sports. Jamaican team Boys’ Town will be among the teams participating in the series. Stephenson, who is an ardent football supporter, will be a guest performer at the event.
