Super star Beres Hammond headlines a power pack Friday night Roots Reggae line-up, which also includes Jah Cutta and Kaisha Lee.
Dancehall and soca rules on Saturday, August 15, when legends Shabba Ranks and Lady Saw take to the stage. Adding to the hype will be St. Vincent’s soca superstar Firemen Hooper together with Barbados’ Leadpipe and Saddis, who are taking the soca scene by storm.
The Saturday night line-up will also include dancehall stars Dexta Daps, Kranium and local hot-rod Daddy Ghost.
