After Saturday’s loss to Atlanta left Colorado with a 13-57 record, the Rockies have the fourth fewest wins by any team through their first 70 decisions in a season in MLB history and the fewest since the 1899 Spiders.
Quelbe Resurrection and the St. John Recovery Choir are teaming up once again to present a free event at Our Place in Coral Bay on Friday, June 20, from 6 to 7:30 p.m.
“This event is a dance party, and all songs will be danceable, so put on your dancing shoes, or just take ‘em off,” said Kristen Carmichael-Bowers, director of Sing St. John, which is producing the concert.
Quelbe Resurrection and the Recovery Choir sang together during the “One Love Concert” in Cruz Bay in April. Because of a last-minute scheduling glitch, a show scheduled for Coral Bay that month was cancelled. Now, Carmichael-Bowers is excited for the opportunity to perform again.
Fostering cultural awareness and strengthening connections within the community are part of Sing St. John’s mission, and Carmichael-Bowers described the choir’s ongoing collaboration with Quelbe Resurrection band as “a hoot!” She also had warm words for the venue in Coral Bay. “Our Place is such a blessing to our community – we’re so grateful to Bev Melius for providing this space for us all to gather,” she said.
Food and local drinks by Coral Bay Catering will be on sale. Delroy “Ital” Anthony will open the event with drumming and song.
Quelbe Resurrection has generated a loyal following by performing traditional Quelbe songs on modern instruments and also featuring music from other genres, including R&B, bossa nova, ballads, calypso, jazz, and pop. “You go out to hear reggae and soca, and usually that’s it,” said Carl Powell, one of the band’s founders. “But when you go to hear Quelbe Resurrection, you get a kallaloo.”
“These ‘One Love’ events have been made possible in part through the Mid Atlantic Folk and Traditional Arts – Community Projects program of Mid Atlantic Arts with support from the National Endowment for the Arts in Washington, D.C., a federal agency,” said Carmichael-Bowers.
“It is thanks to the generosity of our community members and businesses, as well as a grant by the Virgin Islands Lottery, that we are all able to enjoy this celebration of the goodwill and kindness in Love City,” she added.
