Itâs December 27 and that means two things: many stomachs are recovering from overindulgence during the past two days and soca fans everywhere are jumping on social media platforms to check out new releases. Traditionally T&Tâs Carnival started yesterday, Boxing Day. At least the mass local and international interest in the new sounds of the upcoming festival season. And while, sadly, the ongoing global pandemic has added Carnival Monday and Tuesday (February 15 and 16) to its daily growing list of victims, the innate need to fete remains alive in every beating Carnival loverâs heart. Thankfully and perhaps mercifully their âsoca warriorsâ have not abandoned them in their greatest hour of need. New soca releases have been aplenty in recent months, fuelling a series of virtual online eventsâand not so legal Covid-19-regulaitons-breaching âzesserâ and âwesserâ fetes-- leading up to T&Tâs highly anticipated virtual Carnival 2021 showcase.
