The Teddyson John Project (TJ Project) released their latest body of work: Caribbean Moscato. This new album, which has been touted by some as ‘SoulKa’, a possible new sub-genre for soca, is perfectly balanced with soulful instrumentals and intoxicating vocals. Featuring eleven (11) of Teddyson’s iconic and uplifting tracks, Caribbean Moscato is packed with deep points of reflection, upliftment and enjoyment, from ‘Allez’ to ‘New Day’ to ‘Ketch it’.
On November 22, the TJ Project―alongside renowned Saint Lucian artistes― will delight and entertain audiences across the Caribbean and the globe, with an exclusive one-hour acoustic experience. ‘Caribbean Moscato: The Acoustic Concert’ will premiere at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Teddyson John’s YouTube Channel and local media networks: Choice TV, Hot 7, Radio Caribbean International (RCI), The Wave and Vybe Radio.
Regional partners for simulcast include TTT Live Online YouTube, Trident TV 10 Barbados and CMC TV Barbados.
Coming off the heels of Trinidad Carnival 2020, The TJ Project also maintains its partnership with the Saint Lucia Tourism Authority (SLTA) in its quest to highlight authentic Saint Lucian experiences and stories. The Acoustic Concert will also premiere on Travel Saint Lucia’s Instagram at 6:00 p.m.
Public Relations Manager at the STLA asserts “This album embodies all that we aim to present to anyone wishing to experience Saint Lucia. The idea of Saint Lucia being the perfect escape, through its sites, its people and its unique sounds. Caribbean Moscato is an interpretative narration of the Saint Lucia story. The fact that this album includes homegrown artistes like Kayo, Curmiah Lisette and Dwight Florent who have all graced the Saint Lucia Summer Festival stages from Saint Lucia Jazz to Roots & Soul and other international stages, speaks volumes of how deeply Saint Lucian this is.”
“Plus! The concert location at Hotel Chocolat is guaranteed to leave the audience feeling like they’re basking in all of Saint Lucia’s beauty.” She adds excitedly.
Caribbean Moscato is the creation of The TJ Project and 238 Square Miles, and is mixed and engineered by Danyl Daniel and Facemedia Productions of Saint Lucia. It captures the dynamic storytelling skills of passionate musicians. Saint Lucian hip-hop star Kayo describes his involvement in the project as “a spiritual experience.”
Band lead and Saint Lucian Brand Ambassador, Teddyson John explains, “At our very core we are musicians, and whilst the soca circuit has been extremely rewarding, this time of introspection allowed us to reconnect with where it started, creating music―raw and authentic music― to retell some profound stories.”
Caribbean Moscato will be streaming live from November 22, on Spotify, Tidal, iTunes, Deezer, dMusic among other digital platforms.
2020 was earmarked to be an unprecedented tour year for the TJ Project within the Caribbean and North America, but despite the disappointment, they have managed to birth a masterpiece that is, Caribbean Moscato.
