Pumped up by De General

HIS STIRRING, energetic performance bought the crowd to its feet, and the curtain down on the three-hour SocaJazz show.

Edwin De General Yearwood proved yet again why he is one of Barbados’ best loved performers when he took to the stage at Bagatelle Great House on Saturday night.

He commanded members of the mostly mature audience to loosen up and get to their feet, as he sang just a few hits from his vast repertoire like Pump Me Up, Wet Me and Party Ah De Year, and delivered truly emotional renditions of Voice In My Head and Something Greater.

It was a great re-entry on the entertainment scene by the organisers who staged the show in 2011 and 2012 before taking a break.
