“We Jammin’ Still!’’
Please pardon me if I don&rsquo;t know your name but, I know the face/ Last time I saw you, you was in the middle jumping up having time/ I could see you wining up that waist for miles away.<strong>&nbsp; (TeamDWP Studios By Dwayne Watkins)</strong>

“We Jammin’ Still!’’

SO contributing shutterbug Dwayne Watkins and his TeamDWP Studios By Dwayne Watkins crew returned to the ‘Forged From the Love of Liberty’ republic to chronicle the plumage and colour of its cultural festival. For our annual Trinidad & Tobago Carnival issue, we chip alongside the Origins-themed band YUMA (Young and Upwardly Mobile Adults) to the infectious strains of the 2017 soca songs, in this visual digest from Carnival Tuesday (February 28).
