The Coalition
to Preserve Reggae will present their annual Reggae Culture Salute on Saturday,
Nov. 1, in Brooklyn, New York.
The event is aimed
at raising funds to preserve and promote traditional reggae music (scroll down
for an earlier article about the Coalition in SWAN), and chief organizer Sharon
Gordon promises a “storm” of a concert.
“Lyrical wind
gusts are expected to be 180mph so make sure you're safely seated by 7 pm in
Nazareth H.S. located at 475 E 57th Street in Brooklyn because Da Real Storm is
brewing,” Gordon says.
Performers
include reggae icon Marcia Griffiths, U.S.-based musician Don Minott, and the fast-rising
singer and poet Da Real Storm.
