Kobo Town (8:00 PM)
Formed in 2004 by Trinidadian-Canadian singer-songwriter Drew Gonsalves, Kobo Town takes its name from the Port-of-Spain neighbourhood where calypso was born, and explores such contemporary topics as war and immigration, fuelled by irresistible, driving reggae-calypso grooves.

He has since released more than 20 studio albums, including Last Chance, which spent several weeks at number one on the UK reggae charts, and is recognized as one of the world’s preeminent reggae artists.
