Bunji, Fay Ann for Bacchanal Jamaica

THEY have led the soca trail with a plethora of hits over the past five years. Now soca’s favourite couple — Bunji Garlin and Fay-Ann Lyons is set to deliver the hits at Digicel Night at the weekly Bacchanal Fridays series at Mas Camp in St Andrew.

The couple led the reigns last year at Digicel Night and whipped the crowd into a frenzy, leaving patrons on a musical high.

“With Bunji and Fay-Ann Lyons coming back this year, we know the fete is going to be amazing,” said Tari Lovell, sponsorship manager for Digicel.

“For us, giving our customers an incredible experience is one of the core promises of our brand. With our full-service home entertainment brand Digicel Play at the forefront of our Bacchanal celebrations this year, we want our customers to be able to ‘play mas’ and enjoy the soca season so much that they’ll be able to talk about it all year long!” he added.

Michael Ammar Jr, one of the directors of Bacchanal Jamaica, said: “Digicel Night at Bacchanal this Friday is going to be on a whole new level! They have been our headline sponsor for the past 15 years, and I must say that it has been a great partnership. Digicel always manages to bring that extra excitement and that extra special bit that helps to put Bacchanal over the top as a national product, so we’re really looking forward to it. This is certainly going to be an amazing way to close what has been a very good pre-Carnival season at Mas Camp.”

Bunji Garlin is known for a string of hits, including the award-winning Differentology and Truck on D Road. His 2014 album Differentology for VP Records/RCA Records reached number six on the Billboard Reggae album chart, while the single Differentology peaked at number seven on Billboard’s Reggae Digital Singles chart.

Garlin’s wife, soca star Fay-Ann Lyons, co-leader of their Asylum Viking band and daughter of soca icon Super Blue (Trinidad’s first Soca Monarch), signed a four-album deal with VP in March 2014. Her string of hits include Heavy T Bumper, Get On, Party, Miss Behave, Pressure on It, and last year’s monster hit Raze.
