International Soca Artists Farmer Nappy and Adam O — the latter being homegrown talent — will headline an event dubbed Summer Bliss this Saturday, July 16 at Blue Bambou (formerly the New Drive Inn).
With hits such as Backyard Jam, released at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, and well-known jams like Hookin' Meh, My House and Big People Party, Farmer Nappy is a sure bet for event organizers. Adam O, the Virgin Islands artist who has broke through international rankings with hits including Warming Up, Wine and Dip, and Sexy Dance will no doubt show event-goers a great time.
Summer Bliss and similar events happening across the U.S. Virgin Islands cement further the territory's move away from the pandemic stage of Covid-19 and into endemicity. Patrons have been flocking to such events, having endured two years of lockdowns and restrictions on public activity.
DJ Karl with Selectah Kuff will warm up Summer Bliss along with DJ Lips International. Doors open at 10:00 p.m. and tickets can be purchased here.
Blue Bambou says similar affairs, including efforts that cater to all age groups, are planned. "Prior to the pandemic we hosted several events. One included a funday for kids and adults. Stay tuned, we have a lot more in store."
Patrons can expect an environment that is safe and enjoyable to everyone, and "one in which our patrons can unwind," says the company. "We want Blue Bambou to be a place where you can always feel safe while enjoying yourself."
The entertainment outfit sees itself as contributing to the much-needed nightlife and social activities on St. Croix, which diminished after Covid-19 ravaged some businesses in the entertainment sector — one of the more vulnerable groups affected by the pandemic.
"We are very fortunate to continue providing entertainment despite the effects of the pandemic," stated Blue Bambou, which also rents its facility for events (340-423-3569).
The company, which has the security of patrons as one of its top priorities, continues to make enhancements to the spacious venue.
