Carnival in Trinidad- the splendour, the enjoyment, ‘de bacchanal and musical mayhem- it all kicks into first gear with one of the biggest fetes born and bred in T&T.
The annual Fire Fete seals the deal and sets the pace with a cast of super soca entertainers and musicians each year. In 2010 the event will transcend boundaries of the past decade, as organizers move to provide the music, venue, entertainment and security that patrons from all spectrums of society, demand and deserve.
Each year, Fire Fete has the first say on whose music will lead the way at events throughout the season. In 2010, one name that’ll be on everyone’s lips is Grenada’s former Road March king, Tallpree. With his 2010 J’ouvert hit, Wicked Jab penetrating the airwaves, DJ’s and radio personalities already agree that Tallpree will be everywhere in the season ahead.
Fire Fete is home to Tallpree. In 1999 he first exploded onto the scene on stage at Fire with the anthem, “Old Woman Alone.” The dance, the antics, the lyrics- all this, added to his low- keyed vocals- made Tallpree a must-se, that season. The annual, Blazing Fire Fete did it for him in 1999, sending him on, to become a household name across the Caribbean.
In 2010, he’ s hitting Fire Fete hard, again. The buzz surrounding the event has only just begun but Tallpree immediately endorsed it with his signature low-key chants, in a promo that’s already been unleashed on radio stations across T&T.
Speculation is rife as to what organizers have in store. According to insiders though, the Blazing Fire Fete 2010 will be unlike the ordinary with a cast of musicians, handpicked for not just what they sing in 2010, but how quickly they can shake the masses into motion.
Tickets for the highly anticipated ‘season-starter’ go on sale this coming Friday, December 11th.
