My island
I have always been actively involved in my
church’s music ministry and upon graduating
from secondary school, I received the Una Steele
Memorial Award for Music. It was not until my
late adolescent years around the age of 18 that I
really took on the challenge of songwriting and
singing my songs publicly at concerts, shows
and church. These songs, however have not
been officially released.
In 2007, I was one of the finalists for Digicel
Rising Stars, and also a finalist for Grenada
Broadcasting Network’s Gospel Challenge in
both 2009 and 2013, and JADE’s Songwriting
Competition in 2013. During my enrollment at
St. George’s University, I was the leader of the
singing group, Serenity which was chosen to
sing for two of the University’s advertisement.
In 2015 and 2017 consecutively I won Karaoke
Competitions. My first single “’Head up High”
was released in 2017 and my second single “My
Island” was released in April, 2018.
My most major performances to date, was at
the Pure Grenada Music Festival in March 2018
and Rhythms of Spice in June 2018. I also have
additional major performances lined up for
2018.
My main focus right at this time as a recording
artiste is the marketing of my song “My Island”
which can be found on YouTube and my social
media pages on Facebook instagram and Twitter

Head Up High
Lauryn Hill and Kim Burell are my biggest
musical Influences. However, I admire Beyonce’s
work ethics and passion when it comes to
working hard to have a successful music career.

Be one with Nature. I love hiking, going to the
beach, taking walks and driving in scenic places.
I just enjoy nature.
For an authentic Grenadian vacation,
one must try our national dish known as
“Oil Down” which is a mixture of several
food items and meat cooked together in
coconut milk in one pot.
Be sure to visit and enjoy all our historical
places and beaches such as Grand Anse
Beach (a white sandy beach), Leaper’s
Hill, all our Forts, all our waterfalls and
much more.
