“University of Calypso” – an Andy Narell and Relator Music Experience |
An Exclusive Interview with Andy Narell |
Global - The time period is whenever - the setting and place is wherever - and the agenda is good music. That’s pretty much all you need to know about producer, performer, composer and recording artist Andy Narell's latest project called the “University of Calypso” - soon to be released on the Heads-up label. This time Narell teams up with noted Calypso singer “Relator” (real name Willard Harris) to produce another musical nugget that showcases the steelpan instrument and it's often associated sidekick, Calypso music, in a major way. According to the Heads-Up promotional material, ‘Relator, a major known talent of the Calypso music genre brings his special brand of storytelling, humor and musicality to the project. What’s more, 15 unforgettable compositions by legends of calypso such as Lord Kitchener, Lord Melody, Mighty Terror, Roaring Lion, Spider, and Relator himself - are presented by the Narell/Relator tandem.’ We indeed concur. In an exclusive interview with When Steel Talks (WST) Andy shares his thoughts on this, his latest musical venture, and a host of other steelpan music matters. |
