Rise Reggae more than a concert

As Nouvelle Vie, the producer of Rise Wednesday, counts down to RISE Reggae this weekend, it has declared that the event is “more than just a reggae show and dance”.

In its inaugural year, it features the Positive Vibration album launch by Roy Gramps Morgan, three-time Grammy Award singer and lead singer of Morgan Heritage – also headlining RISE Reggae – and his wife Dr Annabelle Manalo Morgan’s book, Mighty Flower, a Forbes best seller. 

“With the Morgans, it’s always a family affair and they always want to share with the people,” said Nouvelle Vie’s Orlando Newton.

Morgan, a reggae singer, instrumentalist, producer, record executive, and entrepreneur extraordinaire, is thrilled to be sharing the moment with his wife whose book captures her advocacy of the benefits of cannabidiol – her personal story. 

The launch party will be held on Friday at 7 p.m. at the Halo Ultra Lounge, St Lawrence Gap followed by the RISE Pre-party from 10 p.m. with all the artistes who will be on stage at the show on Saturday night. 

RISE Reggae will remember music aficionado, the late Warren Jon Doe Forte. Known to be a lover of reggae music, with his personal dubplates of all the night’s artistes, the producers will pay homage on the second anniversary of his passing, and fans can look forward to an interactive tribute.

Tickets for the first-ever RISE Reggae at the Kensington Oval’s 3W’s Amphitheatre on Saturday are now $120 general and $250 drinks inclusive. elevated VIP tickets are available online from Ticketpal and box offices islandwide.
