The Merrritonians is a French combo exploring RockSteady and Jamaïcan music, the old fashion way.
For their eponym debut album, Don Cavalli offered
them 3 songs, " A Lonely One " is the opening title and
a cover version of french singer "Pomme". 50 years
already!
Rocksteady still captivates the souls and makes the
hearts of those who listen to it capsize. A timeless,
warm music and the mother of many musical trends,
largely inspired by this Jamaican treasure. This
Rocksteady memorial is a way of paying tribute to and
thanking all the musicians, singers and sound
engineers who, in such a short period of time, have
recorded an impressive number of tracks!
Half a century later, rocksteady is still very present in
the collective memory but is rarely played live. With
this in mind, The Merritonians propose to replay some
of the hits from these prolific years.
The Paragons, Hopton Lewis, Derrick Harriott, The
Gaylads and many others will be there... Rocksteady
revival !!!
