WE ARE HOUSE: A New Movement Fusing House Music with Caribbean Soul Launches in Saint Lucia

The rhythm of the island just got a whole new heartbeat. This past weekend, Saint Lucia witnessed the official launch of WE ARE HOUSE, a groundbreaking movement celebrating the electrifying union of house music and authentic Caribbean culture.

More than just a party, WE ARE HOUSE is the pulse of a growing collective of tastemakers, DJs, artists, and music lovers on a mission to reimagine the sonic landscape of the island—infusing global house music with local flavour, energy, and vibes.

The launch was a night to remember, headlined by a genre-blending lineup featuring:

AkaMoneyRon, Saint Lucia’s own genre-bending DJ and creative force behind the movement

DJ Blank from Barbados, brought deep Afro and soulful house vibrations from the southern Caribbean.

Gaz delivered rhythmic storytelling through expertly layered beats.

Together, they created an immersive experience that was equal parts dance floor euphoria and cultural renaissance.

This movement is anchored by the quarterly event series House on the Bay, hosted at the scenic Caribbean Blend in the Rodney Bay Dockyard. With a signature fusion of live performances—like steel pan, violin, and Caribbean percussion—alongside guest DJs and curated drink specials, each event offers a fresh take on what nightlife in Saint Lucia can be.

“WE ARE HOUSE is about more than just music,” says AkaMoneyRon. “It’s about reclaiming space for soulful, uplifting vibes. It’s about community, connection, and creativity. We’re here to prove that house music isn’t ‘foreign’—it’s universal. And when blended with our island spirit, it becomes something truly magical.”

With each edition of House on the Bay, the movement grows—drawing an eclectic crowd of locals, expats, and curious travelers alike. What started as a passion project has evolved into a platform for Caribbean expression, global soundscapes, and unforgettable moments.
