thanks all. I really want to nail down where I can hear caribbean type music.. be it happy hour, night performances... anything.. soca, reggae, calypso... can anyone point me to a guide or fill me in please?

If you like reggae along with the local ambiance, then check out Stachey's Reggae Hut in French Cul de Sac on Friday evenings. Never been disappointed. And the food is very good as well.

thank you... I got the day wrong at pineapple petes 2 years ago.. hit rock and roll instead. bummer. i want to be better prepared.

Calmos Café had reggae on Sunday nights in high season. Not sure about now. Great ambiance right by the sea.also great food & cheerful servers.

I used to really like Caribbean music playlists to listen to at the beach when on island, but lately I'm preferring Tropical House music. Relaxing and upbeat at the same time. Search "Firestone" by Kygo, on Youtube for examples of the genre. Nothing better than listening to Kygo while laying out tanning at Club Orient drinking a Yellow Bird cocktail.

I did it bud. I listened. It's not for me...but thank you.

No problem !
