The HD Family Revealed

As Trinidad and Tobago celebrated its independence, the HD Family celebrated its own “musical independence” of sorts last week at  the Zen Night Club in Trinidad  - another exciting concept from its very own iconic soca superstar Machel Montano. Last Wednesday, September 2  the HD Family - Patrice Roberts, Farmer Nappy, Zan and Umi Marcano - stepped out from under the wings of their musical mentor to establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with, in music and beyond.
 
The HD Family Revealed was a live artist showcase event, with the solo acts taking center stage, backed by the live HD Band. In keeping with the HD Family's vision of Caribbean unity, an all-star Caribbean line-up joined the celebration. They included Barbadian soca star Biggie Irie, Cathy Ella, General Grant, Antigua's reigning Jumpy Soca and Groovy Monarch Tian Winter, and Grenada's Nnika Francis. The stage will come alive with music and dance as they will all be accompanied by the exciting HD Dancers.
 
The emergence of these successful musicians is a culmination of years of holistic guidance and preparation by Montano, who has used his vast experience in the business to provide the group with many opportunities, both locally and internationally. Through these avenues they have learned to deal with the rigors of hard work, sacrifices, dedication and the importance of teamwork. Talented and creative, they have been able to develop their own entrepreneurial skills, which will now take them into the future. Montano will continue to guide the group as they move forward, offering management and support in the areas of production, writing, image building and marketing, through his resources.
