A St Mary Mi Come From returns home November 9
Saturday, November 9, is the date for A St Mary Mi Come From, the annual charity concert staged by reggae artiste, Capleton.
Last year, the organisers took the decision to move the event from its usual St Mary home to the National Arena in Kingston, for a number of reasons, including the fact that the previous year had seen rain ruin the event. “But St Mary people, although they supported us, have been calling for it to go back to its home, so we are listening to them,” Capleton’s manager and event coordinator, Claudette Kemp told The Gleaner. She was speaking to us from Bridgeport, Connecticut, where the artiste was scheduled to perform last night, after which he was scheduledto fly to Kansas and then St Louis, both in the United States.
Kemp noted that preparations for the concert were in high gear and that the interest from artistes and other players in the industry was encouraging. “As soon as I posted the flyer on social media, I started getting calls from persons wanting to be a part of the show,” she said.
A St Mary Mi Come From’was recognised as“the most authentic reggae event for 2018 by the Jamaica Reggae Industry Association.
