Drew Gonsalves
Kobo Town
WISE Hall, 1882 Adanac, VancouverFounded and fronted by émigré Trinidadian songwriter Drew Gonsalves, Juno Award winners Kobo Town’s music has been variously described as “an intoxicating blend of lilting calypsonian wit, dancehall reggae and trombone-heavy brass” and a “unique, transnational composite of rhythm and poetry.” Both intense and highly danceable.
