On Friday, November 13th, Pepperpot, Enigmatica Entertainment & Victoria BC Ska Society are proud to present Pepperpot's 14th Anniversary Bash featuring Canada's top conscious dancehall/reggae performer EXCO LEVI! Exco Levi will be joined by The Red, Gold and Green Machine - power trio hailing from Los Angeles and Vancouver & one of the freshest dancehall/reggae selector's on Canada's westcoast - Tank Gyal.

Exco Levi quickly took hold of the Canadian reggae music scene after emigrating from Jamaica in 2005. His strong writing skills complement his lyrical prowess and delivery. He continues to show his range and musical intellect through songs like the Canadian Anthem, “Oh Canada”, the nostalgic “Sweet Jamaica” and the love ballad “Same ole Words”. His songs have given voice to a nation and helped forge an entirely new style of music and rhythm that is revolutionary, fiery, scathing, loving and stinging.

His songs are just as potent on his lips as they are on his Cds. Exco’s ability to quickly engage and convince his audience makes him very appealing. This has led to him being in high demand for colourful collaborations. He has worked with top Djs and promoters worldwide. This musical “Midas” turns any song he touches to pure gold.

Exco Levi plays on major festivals throughout Jamaica, North America and Europe. Such of them include Rebel Salute, Montreal Reggae Festival and the world famous Rototom Festival in Spain. He is a four time Juno Winner and also won the Juno for best reggae performer this year in 2015.

As her family moved from one small town to the next, it was artists like Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston who were her steadfast friends. They not only taught her how to sing and to move, but how to live creatively, and how to express herself honestly through the universal language of music.
