Biggie Irie shows off his groove

The other half of De Red Boyz, Mikey Hulsmeier was not able to make the trip to Trinidad.

Biggie Irie performed song after song way out of what we in Trinidad are accustomed to hearing him perform. His version of Ed Sheeran’s Thinking out Loud was exceptional, so too was Shaggy’s It Wasn’t Me, Murder she Wrote and The Israelites.

Biggie Irie also did some Bob Marley classics like One Love and Three Little Birds and a Sparrow Medley which included Obeah Wedding, The Lizard, Jean and Dinah and Drunk and Disorderly.

Guest musician out of the USA, Joel Cruickshank played a haunting saxophone with the duo which complimented Galt’s guitar playing.

Part-time calypsonian Swami out of the Queen’s Park Oval also performed Congo Man with the musicians.

While the audience was somewhat small the show was well appreciated forcing owner Carl Jacobs to say he will definitely bring them back.
