Concert review and videos by Dawoud Kringle
On a hot muggy early September night, Sugarcane brought their distinctive and innovative reggae to Drom. To quote their bio, “From vintage beginnings in Jamaican group Waterhouse/Chicago, rocking an early guitar skank, to the depths of the Haitian “Racine” movement, where the debut classic ‘Roots Carnaval’ is embraced by the Vodou intelligentsia,”
