Event Description
“If Taj Weekes and Adowa come into your town, do not miss them – you’re guaranteed to be blown away.”
Reggae star, Taj Weekes, hails from St. Lucia in the Caribbean, and with several CDs and years of touring, has proven himself to be an exceptional talent, both as a performer and a songwriter. Blending in elements of acoustic roots-rock and Afro-folk simplicity, Weekes and his band, Adowa, delight audiences with groove-based reggae that comes from a place of deep spiritual awareness. But as committed as they are to social consciousness, their party “riddims” are always front and centre at their amazing, live shows! The band’s vibrant sound defies genre and has garnered critical acclaim and a wide audience across the globe. Vibrant, emotionally challenging and intellectually stimulating, their albums have been consistently ranked as one of the top albums of any given year. Adoni Xavier guitar, Radss Desiree bass, John Hewitt keyboards and Cornel Marshall drums
