Stacey Sobers-Abraham performs Legacy Lives - Lincoln Holder
In stark contrast to the crowds of the Calypso Fiesta competitions held before the pandemic, only a few calypso lovers came out to give support to their cultural icons in San Fernando on Sunday for the replacement event, A Clash of Tents: Showdown in De Taste of Carnival!
Despite the small gathering, patrons enjoyed themselves, singing along with the artistes and dancing in the spaced-out safe zone event held at the Naparima Bowl.
Entertainer Mark Nottingham kicked off the show with rapso, a mixture of poetry calypso music. He was followed by Aaron Duncan with What Time It Is, then Ta’zyah O’Connor with Leap of Faith.
The event presented by the Trinbago Unified Calypsonians’ Organisation (TUCO) and National Carnival Commission (NCC) featured 30 performers from ten calypso tents nationwide.
