Thereafter, he will visit St. Martin, Antigua, St. Lucia, Trinidad, Barbados, as well as New York during the Labour Day celebrations.<\/p>\n<p>He said so far the marketing aspect is faring well, despite the fact that the committee received less funding from the Government as compared to previous years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year it\u2019s a more complete package where you have at least seven elements of Creole music. What we have done this year is to add the element of cadence lypso on all three nights because I believe that the foundation of the festival hinges on cadence lypso,\u201d he noted in an interview with DNO.<\/p>\n<p>Charles assisted with forming this year\u2019s lineup. According to him, the public will be entertained by performers of songs Kukuro- one of the biggest Creole beats which originated from the Ivory Coast. \u201cIt has sort of replaced the Soukous; it\u2019s the new wave hitting the French West Indies. We have incorporated the reggae element with Ali Campbell of UB40 \u2026 it will bring back the nostalgia,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Les Aiglons, Victor O, Kreyola, Midnight Groovers and Luciano will open the night for this year\u2019s festival on October 29.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday night features Jah Cure of Jamaica, Krosfyah Band from Barbados, Mas Compa, the WCK Band and Les Etoiles Du Candance.<\/p>\n<p>Bringing the curtains down on the final night are Creole Stars featuring Princess Lover, Ali Campbells UB40, Orlane, Stefan Ravor, Costuleta and the MKG Band, T-Vice, Exile One and Triple Kay Band.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets are being sold for a reduced price of $250 for a season ticket until August 31. From September, they will be sold at $300, and afterwards tickets will go back to their normal prices of $325 for a season ticket. Nightly tickets cost $120.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe response has been overwhelming,\u201d Charles said, encouraging patrons to take advantage of the special offer.<\/p>\n<p>Charles assured the public that they should not be daunted since all the artistes are confirmed to perform.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have everybody on schedule. All the artistes have been given their deposits and it\u2019s just a matter of continuing to promote the event,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A complete package of various elements of Creole music has been incorporated in the lineup of the 14th Annual World Creole Music Festival (WCMF), according to Leroy \u2018Wadix\u2019 Charles.
