Spanner Banner looks to the future

REGGAE artiste Spanner Banner is looking to his recent album I’m A Winner, to restore his career.

The singer notes that he may not be commanding attention like the current crop of young artistes, but stresses that he is still as talented as when he made his entry into the music biz back in the 1980s with Life Goes On, produced by Winston Riley.

Now, after a relatively quiet stint Spanner Banner, whose brothers Richie Spice, Pliers, Snatcha Lion and Jah Mikes are all involved in music, revealed that he has a number of upcoming projects and also addressed the issue of his absence in music.

“Well, I wouldn’t say that I was fully (absent). In January, I did Rebel Salute and I’m scheduled for several upcoming events, but it’s just airplay that I’m finding problems with,” he said.

The singer, whose career spans over two decades, has also recently signed a booking contract with Entertainment Konnections, which is a Negril-based company owned and operated by Ralston Barrett.

Spanner Banner says he’s very optimistic about this decision, and has already visions himself being overloaded with show engagements in the near future.

“I can see endless possibilities. I’m already looking for more shows in the Caribbean and elsewhere. I have all the trust in this. That’s what you get working with Barrett, who also happens to be my publicist,” he added.
