Caribbean Week 2010

Caribbean Week in Canada is a celebration of the sights, sounds, colours, culture and unique vacation attributes of the Caribbean. Tourism officials, the media, artistes, performers, celebrity chefs, sponsors and strategic partners and the Caribbean Diaspora will converge on the cities of Montreal and Toronto during the period October 21-29, 2010.


Arranged by the Caribbean Tourism Organization, Caribbean Week offers many opportunities to reach various market segments in Canada through a combination of events targeting the media, trade, consumers and the Caribbean Diaspora.


The Rum and Rhythm event, scheduled for October 29, 2010, will be full of the sights, sounds, rhythm and taste of the Caribbean and it our pleasure to announce that Eddie Bullen will be the headliner.  For those of you who have not had the pleasure of hearing Eddie, here is a bit of background.





Pianist, songwriter, arranger and producer Eddie Bullen moved to Toronto from Grenada in 1980 and has become, in every way, a standout amongst the latest generation of multi-talented artists.  His lengthy career has yielded an abundance of awards (including a Juno) and recognition for his outstanding talents.  Eddie gives his audience a taste of contemporary jazz, flavoured with Caribbean and Latin rhythms.

This  quote from the New York Times says it all ..."Eddie Bullen keeps audiences in Canada and throughout the Caribbean on their feet and begging for more with his distinctive style.  His compositions are audacious and sexy, titillating the senses ...”
