Richie Spice, I-Wayne put signature on Appleton series
After thrilling the audience at Appleton Estate Signature Nights in Salem, Runaway Bay, on Thursday night, reggae star Richie Spice said he was happy with the reception he and I-Wayne got from music lovers.
“It’s a good vibration, you know. The people came out in their numbers to vibe to some Richie Spice and I-Wayne, and we appreciate and love that. We give thanks for Appleton [Estate] who put this together and invited us here. It’s just a good night, a good night,” said international artiste Richie Spice, whose catalogue of hits had the crowd rocking to no end throughout his performance.
The reggae star performed hits like Earth A Run Red, Brown Skin, Grooving my Girl;,and crowd favourite, The Plane Land, which had Sharkies erupting in cheers and roars. His set also set included renditions of classic reggae tunes such as Christ in his Kingly Character by the late Garnet Silk.
I-Wayne’s set brought the fire. The artiste electrified Sharkies Restaurant with a string of hits, sprinkled with innovative freestyles aimed at riling up the crowd in all the right ways. The culture giant drew for classics like One Man Can’t Satisfy Her, Lava Ground, Life Seeds, and the powerful Don’t Worry.
“It’s a great joy, this Appleton Estate vibe. We love the people’s response to the music – positive vibes, as I always say. The more people say reggae is dead, is the more Reggae spread. We love the vibe.”
Thursday’s stop was the second in the series this year. The show, hosted by media personality Talia Soares, was held at Sharkies Seafood Restaurant in St Ann.
The next Appleton Estate Signature Nights stop will be held at Thyme Restaurant and Bar in Kingston on Thursday, November 28. It will feature international act Wayne Wonder.
