Join DJ Sex 14s on Wednesday, September 29th @ 10AM when he speaks with singer-songwriter, Taj Weekes.
Bred in the Caribbean island of St. Lucia but shaped by intercontinental life experience, Weekes is also an unwavering, energetic humanitarian, who founded his children’s charity, They Often Cry Outreach (TOCO). His efforts have garnered him the title UNICEF Champion for Children for St. Lucia where he implements and executes various programs designed to enrich the lives of Caribbean children.
Taj has six acclaimed albums of musically adventurous reggae that imbues his songs with a pragmatic, non-judgmental optimism that is not merely unusual in reggae, but almost unique. So what makes Taj Weekes special can be summarized in three words: MUSICIAN. POET. HUMANITARIAN. What makes him astonishing is the easy and unforced harmony among all these facets of his existence.
Weekes’ seventh and latest album, Pause, is his first solo project since he parted ways with his long standing band, Adowa.
