GUEST,Suzy T. Music:St Lucia, Grenada - Caribbean (10) RE: Music:St Lucia, Grenada - Caribbean 12 Feb 16


I don't know about making music, but there is an absolutely wonderful band in St. Lucia called Man May La Kay Folk Band (pronounced sort of "Mamay LaKye") led by a fiddler, Charley Julian, and they also have banjo (Antoine), guitar (Anthony), Drum (Wellings) and shak shak (a homemade percussion instrument) (Augustin). We were able to bring this group to Festival of American Fiddle Tunes in Port Townsend, WA, a few years ago (thanks to a very generous donor) and they totally rocked the joint for the entire week, and jammed with all comers. Very very nice folks and I loved their music. Ask around if you get to St. Lucia -- for Man May Lakay or for Mr. Charley Julian, the fiddler. Oh you are in for such a treat!
