Carnival is just around the corner, and have we got a treat for you, come and celebrate with us!

Our 2019 theme is Dancing in the Street: A tribute to Music. We are paying tribute to the rich melanin culture across the board, these artists have given us Jazz, Motown, Samba, Reggae, Funk, Pop and Rock right up to the present day with artists such as Beyoncé.

Too many to name in one parade, this is but a snapshot of a larger movement that shaped music as a whole. The fashion, dance forms, lifestyle and fight against oppression empowered us all to move to the enchanting sound wave that we call, Music. This is for the trailblazers, rebels and the powerful influences they have had on music today,
we thank them .

“Dancing in the Street”

Our front commission presents you with the infamous track by Martha and the Vandallas; later covered by Jagger and Bowie. Like many black artists before them, they were the among the first to bring their music to white audience, breaking down cultural and racial barriers. Think glamourous girl groups from the 60s.

 “It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing!”

New Orleans’ Storyville, a notorious Red-Light district, is home to the brothels and bars that provided the only venues for jazz, since African American performers were banned from performing at white clubs. Think bold, racy, illegal, prohibited!

“No No No”

We pay tribute to the song by Dawn Penn, however, this is cover version of Chicago born singer and songwriter Willie Cobbs. This track is a well-known song outside of reggae; it has been sampled by a vast range of artists. Colours of reggae and featuring records as accessories!

Each baiana will have the same design but a different coloured top; Red, silver, gold, purple and green.

“Purple Rain”

Released in 1984, the same year as LSS’s beginnings, Purple Rain remains to this day the track best associated with Prince. The album of the same name became gold in the same year.

Think purple, sexy, gender bending, camp..
