Shurwayne Winchester Among Invited Caribbean Celebs To Toast To Overproof Success

Port-of-Spain, Trinidad. October 22, 2011--------Some very big names in Caribbean entertainment will knock glasses this Sunday in Jamaica. The lone Trinidad and Tobago artiste among the specially invited guests is none other than Shurwayne Winchester, who also happens to be the only T&T featured on the dancehall riddim- The Overproof riddim.

The occasion for Sunday’s event is the official launch party for the JA Productions produced riddim on which artistes like Mavado, Beenie Man, Wayne Marshall, Bounty Killer and T&T’s soca rude boy, Shurwayne Winchester have contributed seamless hits. In T&T, Winchester’s single on the Overproof riddim, Wine On It, has been on the tip of everyone’s tongue. Many were shocked upon realising that Tobago-born Winchester was so effortlessly able to jump on the riddim, creating a frenzy of excitement among fans- especially those of the feminine persuasion.

The event, which is being held at Carlos Café in New Kingston, Jamaica will also be the launching pad for a brand new video that features Mavado and fellow artiste, Navino. The gathering on Sunday, which will feature the music of a slate of artistes including Shurwayne, reiterates statements made by JA Productions’ producer, Justus Arison in early August when Wine On It was released. Back then he’d joyously noted that Shurwayne would be the artiste out of T&T to truly bridge the gap between Jamaica and the soca loving island, and thus far, the airplay being enjoyed in T&T for both the Jamaican artistes and Shurwayne, is proof that Arison’s prediction was certainly on point. Shurwayne, commenting on receiving the invitation explained that while he would have loved to be there on Sunday, he would have to miss out on the fun this time around as a result of pre-scheduled engagements. He however assured that he is, and will continue to be in constant contact with the team in Jamaica.

Fans Call for More S.W. Music, Even in S.O.E.

Even amid the ongoing State of Emergency in T&T, music lovers are holding firm to the beats of their favourite entertainers, especially those who are preparing for an emerging C2K12 season in T&T. Daily, one Caribbean entertainer is motivated by his online group of supporters to keep the music pumping

On Tuesday, August 30, Shenae Enn sent the message seen up top, to Winchester. Little did she know   how much of boost  her two lines of motivational words would be for the artiste who, even having won numerous titles over the years, keeps his ear to the ground and prays for the acceptance of the masses in the prelude to carnival each year. 

Already, Winchester has delivered two slamming hot tracks. "Wine on It" on the Overproof riddim proved to be a creeper that has certainly proven itself in recent weeks, while "Harder" on King Bubba's Rich Boy riddim is first class, according to real music lovers. 

Ahead of C2K12, Tobago born Winchester is calmer than in recent years. His presence in the industry over the years has taught him quite a lot and as he prepares for yet another season of revelry in T&T, Shurwayne's getting set to deliver his unique blend of music to those who will truly understand what he stands for- that being the preservation of T&T's culture and the development of the soca genre. 

As for the S.O.E. currently being experienced on the island, Winchester's passing his time in the studio.  He's promising to release another single in the weeks ahead and there's no doubt in the minds of those who know him best that he will deliver! All he asks is for his supporters to keep doing what they're doing...requesting the music wherever they can, so that he can perform for them in the heat of the C2K12 season!
