Standing “O’s” for musicians

In Bajan parlance the two bands who featured at the CIBCFirstCaribbean Bank Sugar Isle Jazz Festival on Saturday night do “bad, bad, bad” at The Plantation Theatre.
The Caribbean was represented by the Golden Apple Project, the local band and the Caribbean All-Star band which included Trinidadian Len ‘Boogsie’ Sharpe on steel pan. Earning an encore and standing ovation each, the two bands brought their own style, sounds and concepts to the stage.
First up was the band Golden Apple Project with David Carnegie on drums, Neil Newton on bass; Rhesa Garnes with vocals, Romaro Greaves on saxophone and Darien Bailey on keyboards.  They had a tremendous set, switching from jazz to soca to reggae to ballads.
