RACHEL PRICE HITS NEW YORK!

On Memorial Day May 30th, the humour of the Caribbean will infiltrate the city of New York. Brooklyn will be transformed into Priceless headquarters as Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean’s leading female comedian, Rachel Price brings her show to the Big Apple.

Set to be hosted at the Tropical Paradise Ballroom - 1367 Utica Avenue, Brooklyn, from 6pm, the show is expected to be a guaranteed sold out affair.

Online, a Facebook event page, created to promote and inform patrons, has already amassed tremendous interest, with most saying they’ve purchased their tickets and can’t wait for the holiday thrill. 

Price, whose Priceless Promotions has been kicking up a storm across the Caribbean and internationally for quite some time, brings a very real, unapologetic air to comedy. Her use of practical scenarios, most of which includes herself, friends, corporate entities, politicians and even her daughter, who she fondly refers to as ‘ The Jew,’ for her love of money, have placed Rachel Price at the top of her game.

On May 8th, Trinidad’s Hyatt Hotel played host to the comedian, as she gave mothers a treat, one day prior to the Mother’s Day celebration. Her sexuality coupled with her sleek comedic style gave all in the audience much to laugh about and be intrigued by.

On May 30th, Brooklyn will experience something utterly phenomenal as Priceless roars into town. Tickets for the show are available at almost every Caribbean hotspot, including Foreign Accent Barber Shop, Gloria’s Three, Best Bite, Allan’s Bakery, JW Records, VP Records in Queens and even King’s Roti Shop on Liberty Avenue.

Bunji Plans 'Big Time Show' for July Birthday In T&T!

An extraordinary event is in the pipeline for July 17th. Port-of-Spain Trinidad will on that night, experience a true celebration of life as local soca artiste, Ian Alvarez, better known by his stage name, Bunji Garlin, will throw the birthday bash of a lifetime. 
Coined, Bunji Garlin’s Birthday Bash, soca stars from the island of the musical genre’s birth and many from across the region, will come together with dancehall and reggae’s best to give the people of T&T a truly thrilling stage show. 

Already, local event coordinating powerhouse has been hired to ensure the masses come out and are treated to a professionally engaging event from venue to accommodation, ticketing to parking and sound quality among other specifics. 

This time around, Garlin, who has amassed a tremendous following, both regionally and internationally over the years, has decided to splurge on what has become an annual event. Instead of the regular run of the mill club event, the self-proclaimed, ‘Fireman’ is calling all party lovers and fans of his music, to indulge in a truly memorable outdoor birthday bash experience. 

A weekend-long schedule of activity is being planned for not just the stars who’ll grace the event, but also the people who, according to the artiste himself, “ has been my driving force and inspiration for many years.” 

Among the lineup of stars set to be a part of the celebration is Jamaican sensation Busy Signal who this year collaborated with Fay Ann Lyons Alavarez on her hit soca single, Start Wining. The crowned princess of Soca and wife of the birthday boy has also come up with what many will agree is the best conclusion to the weekend- a Sunday night simmer at The Living Room Nightclub in Arima.

Luni Spark & Electrify Hit T&T By Storm

The regional integration that’s made possible through the Greatest Show on Earth, has begun.

Lunni Spark & Electrify, the sensational Grenadian duo who in 2007 and 2008 took home Grenada’s Soca Monarch title, spent both Thursday and Friday in Trinidad and Tobago,  releasing new music and starting the buzz for 2010. 

The pair has teamed up with Mr. Spine’s HolyHouse Production and The Millionaire Family who’ve already produced a number of hits ahead of the season. Together, they've unleashed four tracks for the masses. “ Ah Wining,” "Wine It,” “Eruption,” and “ Doh Call It,” debuted in T&T, in a pre-carnival buzz that’s already taking over the Christmas season. The Grenadian boys’ stint in Trinidad saw them stop by most media houses, including Synergy TV and many of the popular radio stations.

Self proclaimed,‘ Energy Kings of Soca,’ Luni Sparks & Electrify have started their 2010 soca campaign strong, riding high on the wave of success at the 2009 International Soca Awards. Although the event in itself was cancelled, Caribbean received their merit for the hard work put in, in 2009. In a release, the awards committee presented the pair with awards in the categories of, Best Soca Collaboration Up-Tempo and Best Soca Duo. 

Their stay in T&T, though brief – was meant to keep the momentum high heading into the New Year. In the weeks ahead, there’s no doubt that the youthfully vibrant pair will be back to stomp their names all over Carnival island.
