Jajaboah

originally composed by Mighty Sparrow. Heard this song on an album being played by a Steel Band 30 years prior in Trinidad. I wanted to be right there in the middle of that. This is my attempt to do that with 3 other great musicians one fine day in Brooklyn, NY.

Inspired by the island of Grenada, West Indies and the steelbands of Brooklyn, NY, Antilles Connection gathered some of my favorite musicians and instrumentations. We covered music stylings like calypso, beguines and soca. Songs from the Mighty Sparrow classics, the Twin Peaks Theme, and Nick Drake were covered as well as original compositions.
