"Birthday Girls" get special treat at Quad

Its a Lotto picker's dream rake.

Three talented young ladies, singers all, and born literally within two days of each other. In fact, singers, Dasea, Chanti-I, and Yasmine celebrate their May birthdays on the 1st, 3rd and 5th respectively.: 1-3-5.

And, th the Quad nightclub in New Kingston this past week they, and a sizeable audience got a stirring birthday treat in the persons of Tony Rebel and Tarrus Riley, who dropped in on the cabaret presentation and combined for a scintillating night of impromptu entertainment. The "Rebel" and "Singy-singy" vibrantly ran through now familiar "tune-for-tune tag team" act, trading excerpts of well-known hits by a range of artists.

The audience, which included notables such as comedians Blacka Ellis and Ity  and Fancy Cat, could not get enough, and kept the two crooners - who came on at closing time - in the club well into the night. Not to be outdone, the three singing ladies also shone brightly, whether individually, in combination, or with the support of a raft of musicians. It was - in terms of personnel - one of, if not the biggest shows in he history of  the long-running, high-quality live entertainment series.

Live Jammin' at Christopher's as the series has become known, is presented by Mo' Muzyk Pros and happens at the Quad on Tuesday and Thursday nights each week, beginning at 7:30pm

 
 

Life Of Riley: Tarrus Live at 38A

"She's Royal" is just one of those songs.

One of those that you enjoy hearing the hundredth time, and even the thousandth time, as much as the first. That goes double for seeing Tarrus Riley perform it live, as he did on Sunday night at the very happening 38a entertainment centre, on Trafalgar Road.

With the reliable Dean Fraser and the top-notch Black Soil band in support, Riley could do no wrong, especially for the ladies, who screamed on cue and sang their anthem word for word.

Liveplug-Emx was on hand (we spoke briefly with the singer afterwards - more on that in another post) and captured a few highlights
