Taj Weekes & Adowa Perform at the 2nd Annual Montauk Music Festival
Award-winning St. Lucian artist Taj Weekes and his band Adowa unite a vibrant diversity of sound with sturdy roots rhythms and lush, thoughtful arrangements. Weekes’ fresh, hard-edged lyrics reveal an innate sophistication that yields to the intimacy of poetry, producing songs that don’t just reflect a conscience, but resonate with passion and vigor. Though long hailed by reggae fans, Weekes defies simple genre formulas in search of a purity of sound that appeals to a diverse and enthusiastic audience.
