TRI-STATE: After a 2-year absence from Covid-19, International reggae crooner Beres Hammond is BACK. The Lovers Rocker has three significant dates in the tri-state area in August. His first performance is Friday, August 12, at College Street Music Hall in New Haven, Connecticut; then, on Saturday, August 13, he performs at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) in Newark, NJ; and on Sunday, August 14 the series ends in Brooklyn, New York at the Coney Island Amphitheater at Coney Island Boardwalk. Produced by Jamming Events and sponsored by JN Money Transfer and Bartenura, the concert series ‘Singers in Action’ will also feature Superstar Band, Third World, and other Friends.
Armed with an impressive catalog of singalong hits’ Red Light,’ ‘Step Aside,’ ‘What One Dance Can Do,’ ‘Double Trouble,’ ‘Love Means Never To Say Sorry,’ ‘Putting Up Resistance,’ and ‘Rockaway,’ the ‘Boss’ along with his new anthem, “Mi Deyah Again” will be looking to renewing his musical kinship with Tri-State fans, event promoter George Crooks stated.
“Music lovers are excited about this year’s presentation of ‘Singers in Action and the fact that we have paired Beres with another reggae Band ambassador, Third World and other special guests, make these concerts must-attend events. The tri-state area is home to the largest concentration of Jamaica and Caribbean nationals in the Diaspora, so we expect a large turnout for this important 2022 calendar stop for Beres,” Crooks shared. No matter where he performs, Brooklyn is truly his home away from home,” Crooks shared.
Celebrating over 40 years, ‘Reggae Ambassadors, Third World is one of the longest-lived Reggae bands of all time and one of Jamaica’s most consistently popular crossovers acts among international audiences Mixing in elements of R&B, funk, pop, rock, and later dancehall and rap, ThirdWorld’ss style has been described as”reggae-fusion” With 10 Grammy nominations and a catalog of charted smash hits (including” Now That We Found Love“ 96 Degrees in the Shade” and”Try Jah Lov“”) spanning over four decades, sold-out tours, a vibrant and loyal fan base, and inspirational messages, one may wonder,” Where did it all begin What makes ThirdWorld’stayingng power so rare in the music industry”?” Third World is more than just one of the top Reggae bands.
