On October 20th, Heroes Day, in honour of Jamaica's national and local heroes, the “Fireman” Capleton will bring an electrifying performance to the Sharkie’s Seafood Festival.
Speaking ahead of his performance, Capleton, who was a recipient of a national honour in August at the annual Grand Gala, shared that, “Jamaica has many heroes, who are the mothers and fathers who are looking after their children and keeping up with the morals of the country. I will be honouring those people as well as those who fought for the freedom we enjoy in Jamaica.”
He continued, “Marcus Garvey taught us how to be self-reliant and about having business for ourselves. Paul Bogle taught us to rebel and fight for justice and fair treatment for all Jamaicans, and Nanny taught us that women can be great leaders.”
Capleton recently returned from headlining performances at Reggae Land in the United Kingdom as well as The Barclays Centre.
He is also slated to perform on the Welcome to Jamrock Cruise and the Treasure Beach Rum and Food Festival.
