AGSelectPR, Roseau, Dominica, June 15th 2010: Four-time calypso and 5-time road march winner Dennison “King Dice” Joseph promises a spectacular event for patrons attending the King Dice and Friends Father’s Day Concert on Saturday June 19th at Dominica’s Harlem Plaza.

According to MC and co-organizer, Val “Young Bull” Cuffy, this concert was organized especially with fathers in mind. “Mother’s Day gets a great deal of coverage and is such a big event in the annual calendar; we want to do the same for fathers.  They deserve their roses too.” He added, “We have for them a strong lineup of popular local artists including headliner King Dice a favorite of many Dominicans.”

King Dice will ring in Father’s Day with a variety of songs from his repertoire including moving social commentaries like “(Help) My Brothers’ For Me”,  “Higher” as well as the Reggae lovers’ anthem “Chance”.  Having not performed at Calypso Finals this year, King Dice believes that this show will be a treat for the fans.  “I will deliver like I am at the finals, so they can expect props, extras, wardrobe changes, and stage effects.”  Dice, who was approached by Cuffy with the idea for the show, also believes in the importance of recognizing and celebrating fatherhood.  “I am a father too and it’s a great feeling to honor dads like this.  I think it will be a great show full of love and positive energy.”

Preceding Dice on stage will be local Reggae artists Dr. Silk, Atunyah and Abessah.  The nine performing calypsonians are:  Sye, De Professor (Jr. Calypso Monarch 2009 & 2010), Soul Puss, Hunter (Former Calypso King), Tasha P, Yakima, Checker, Triumph and Prosper.

Tickets for the show, which starts at 9PM, costs $30.00 and $50.00 VIP.  It is sponsored by LIME as well as Bulls Eye Pharmacy, Heineken, Jolly’s Pharmacy, Minya’s 7-11 and Courts.
