    Ska: Is back in Kgn - BIG TIME !

    The Brooklyn Attractors, is another of the overseas acts set to perform at the festival. They were founded by trumpeter, Rich Graiko in 2011, as a way of paying homage to the 1960s and 1970s era of Jamaican and American instrumental music. The group, which includes the legendary Jamaican percussionist Larry McDonald, plans to bring to the festival, influences from Tommy McCook and The Supersonics, The Soul Vendors and Rico Rodriguez. In so doing, they hope to push forward on old traditions, and leave a lasting impression on patrons.

    "It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

    I really hope the festival gets some support. So much potential. If we are talking music-based tourism in Kingston, Ska has to be a part of it.

    My dream is to see a section of downtown Kingston turned into an entertainment district, similar to what the French quarter is for New Orleans. There are not many cities in the world that can claim to be the cradle of a distinct genre of music which is known internationally , Kingston has claim to at least two.

      Agreed a 100% Alpha has to be at its foundation.
