MIAMI – Trinidad and Tobago will be represented at the upcoming Miami Music Festival from Thursday, December 10 to Sunday, December 13, 2009. This team will consist of thirty persons who will be representing Trinidad and Tobago in a variety of performances.
Trinidad & Tobago Entertainment Company is taking our local musical mix to the world once again. A team of 30 persons is scheduled to leave for Miami on Wednesday 9th December and is carded to return on Sunday 13th December, 2009.
This “callaloo” export consists of performances to tantalize the music-lover’s tastebuds. Look out for a taste of Caribbean-flavoured jazz from Chantal Esdelle and Moyenne, a dash of Reggae from emerging artiste, Positive, a hearty helping of Modupe Onilu and Dayo Bejide, a piping-hot serving of Soca from Nadia Batson and Kerwyn Du Bois and a refreshing layer of alternative music from Russell Leonce, Rizon and Kin Sibling Rivalry.
The musicians will participate in a series of showcase performances across different locations in and around the Brickell area in Miami.
