Barbados has a new progressive pop rock/alternative band that’s creating a reputation home and abroad for its dynamic sound produced onstage and in the recording studio.
The principal members are Kevin Jack, guitar; Melvin Alick, drums; David Thomas, bass and Carlos Baptiste on vocals.
Like its name implies, Fighting Traffic is going against the grain of music in the Caribbean. The band, which was formed in 2007, has combined the surging power of rock, soaring melodies and thoughtful lyrics, to create a style that can be appreciated by a large number of music lovers.
Fighting Traffic is committed to writing and producing cutting-edge, original material, with all intentions of garnering the attention of fans in the local, regional and international music markets.
At present, the band is busy promoting its debut single Don’t Worry About It, which is receiving favourable airplay on Mix 96.9FM. The band will be launching its first album, also titled Don’t Worry About It at the Virgin Music Festival on Sunday. (PR)
