3rd ANNUAL
REGGAE REMEMBRANCE DAY w/ 4-time Juno Award winner, Exco Levi at
Calabash- 2015
Although
we were in recovery mode after the low attendance of the Kabaka
Pyramid show, we took the
opportunity
to have 5 time Juno Award winner for the Reggae Single category, Exco
Levi for a promotional performance showcasing his new album up for
the Juno Awards. We were lucky to get him through his manager and
founder of the Reggae category of the Juno’s Awards for a great
price so we felt compelled to take it on as he had never appeared in
Vancouver and we wanted to help build a fan base for him here.
Cautious
about our niche market from our last event, we decided to have him at
a smaller venue where we had previously had a successful event, so we
chose Calabash Bistro. The turnout was full capacity and the show was
intimate and energized, showing us that we could definitely go bigger
in the future. This event showed us that we were now a major cultural
music promotion organization in Vancouver with a solid reputation for
bringing unique and creative events to Vancouver with critically
acclaimed artists.
