Kurt Riley Looks Forward To ‘Jambian Festival’ and ‘Winstrumental’

Music Producer and Radio jock Kurt Riley is hoping to take patrons on a musical expedition this Saturday, October 22, in Pier One in Montego Bay at the inaugural staging of the Jambian Music Festival.

The musical fest’s exciting musical lineup is set to feature Montego Bay’s DJ Crazy Neil, Riley, St Ann’s DJ Presley Hype, DJ Squeak from Team Shella, and Coppershot.

Riley outlined that all the disc jocks in the line-up will play as one. Patrons can expect to hear a mixture of Soca, Afrobeats, Dancehall, Reggaeton, Latin music and Caribbean music. This event is geared toward pushing the music from the Caribbean in a party zone.

Riley further stated the venue was selected because he can get the influx of locals and tourists who are open-minded when it comes to music. The disc jock is looking to make Jambian Festival’ and ‘Winstrumental’ an annual event.

Riley has some experience in events promotion, having been associated with the popular soca series Hard Wine. He also promoted Trailer Load Wednesdays and the Animal Instinct series which was held in Kingston, Ocho Rios, and St Elizabeth.

Riley is also set to release an instrumental album which is a tribute to his late father Winston Riley. The album is scheduled to be released in January 2023.
