TRINIDAD-BORN, Brooklyn-based soca artiste Lyrikal is the featured act for Bacchanal Fridays scheduled for Mas Camp in St Andrew, tonight.

“We look forward to Lyrikal’s performance and encourage soca lovers to come out and be a part of the fun,” said Charmaine Franklin, a director of Bacchanal Jamaica.

Lyrikal, given name Devon Martin, has built an extensive catalogue. His repertoire consists of hit singles including Wuk-Out Yuh Man, Nothing Under, All Over De Gyal, Ramajay, Conquer Meh, and his 2015 hit Cloud 9.

“We will be featuring a performer for each of the Bacchanal Friday fetes and, of course, we bring in Bunji and Fay Ann and the Viking Band, Kes The Band, and Destra with Bakanal Band and Kerwin for the final fetes — Digicel (March 27), Beach J’ouvert (April 4), Bacchanal Jouvert (April 10) and the road march (April 12),” she said.

Bacchanal Jamaica sponsor Smirnoff, in the spirit of celebrating life responsibly, decided to reward revellers at Bacchanal Fridays with a chance for themselves and up to five friends to be transported to and from Mas Camp as a part of the company’s Drink Right Campaign.

To qualify revellers had to pledge to drink right #ipledgetodrinkright on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.

“Getting home safely is an important part of responsible partying, so we decided to provide a designated driver for some of the Bacchanal revellers. Last week’s winners were Orinthia Bailey, Jodi Ann Sewell and Stacy Ann Gordon. We encourage anyone planning to go to Bacchanal Fridays to pledge to “drink right” and they might just become one of our lucky winners,” said Nanda Dukharan, brand PR manager, Red Stripe.
