There’s no doubt that the past few years have seen an increased interest in Caribbean music. SOCA – the national music of Trinidad and REGGAE – the national music of Jamaica.Masquerade’s line-up of musicians from all over the English speaking Caribbean gives this band’s music a unique interpretation.
