Aleighcia Scott and Teshay Makeda – two rising stars of reggae and neo soul – take to the stage with Ciyo Brown and his band to explore the music that influenced them from reggae greats Joya Landis, Phyllis Dillon and Susan Cadogan, through to current day RnB divas. These musical ‘Queens in waiting’ will also be adding some of their own compositions to this good times mix of classic vibes and new grooves!

Raised in a Rastafarian household by a song writing, musician father and music loving mother, music has always been the focal point of everything in her life.
