Celebrate Ten Years Of Caribbean Jazz At The 10th Annual Jazz
Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago… Energies are high at
Production One Limited as preparations move into top gear for its 10th anniversary
edition of Jazz Artists on the Greens (JAOTG) on The Greens at Farm Road, St. Joseph
on Saturday March 24, 2012. In the spirit of celebration and reminiscence, Production One
will highlight some of the fondest memories of the past ten years with the launch of the
JAOTG Rewound! Giveaway Promotion. Starting Monday March 12, 2012 for two
weeks, the veteran event management company will run a trivia competition via the JAOTG
Facebook page giving away JAOTG 2012 tickets to ten lucky patrons.
As with previous editions, JAOTG 2012 promises a delicious mix of contemporary Caribbean
jazz styles, delivered by some of the most talented performers in the region. This year, the
JAOTG stage welcomes back the provocative kweyol (Creole) jazz inflections of Dominica’s
Cultural Ambassador, Michele Henderson, backed by Ming & Friends. Bringing their unique
Caribbean flavour to the celebration is Trinidad and Tobago’s veteran jazz musician,
Carlton “Zanda” Alexander and The Coalpot Band along with London-based Trinidadian
steelpan virtuoso, Annise Hadeed, and his quartet of Douglas Reddon, Theron Shaw and
Richard Bailey. Hot on the heels of his latest album release, Songs from Deep Within,
smooth jazz guitarist Clifford Charles will be among them to share his home-grown brand of
silky-smooth music, while the charismatic, lively and eclectic jazz stylings of songbird,
Llettesha Sylvester, are sure to be a delightful treat.
