Etana, whose name in Swahili means ‘The Strong One’, has topped reggae charts in England, Jamaica, USVI and the Eastern Caribbean with hits like ‘Wrong Address’, ‘Warrior Love’, Roots and more recently ‘I Am not Afraid’.

With an ever growing collection of prestigious musical awards ranging from Famous Vocalist of the Year (2007-09) to Most Admired Female Artist, singer/songwriter Etana has struck a cord with the masses and like any beautiful melody she is winning the hearts of people one song at a time.

Etana makes her debut performance in Dominica as part of May Fest 2009 in Marigot. May Fest is an annual community festival organized by the Marigot Development Corporation.

The 4 day event takes place over the May Day holiday weekend. Other activities for May Fest include, an Ecumenical Church Service, May Challenge, a competitive out-door sporting challenge for groups and a Beach Bash.

The Sunday Night International Artist Night also features an impressive line up of local chart toppers MFR, WCK, Swinging Stars, XS Grove, Esclave and Justice Band.

Etana replaces other Jamaican reggae artiste Serani, who indicated he was not able to be in Dominica for the show again. MDC hopes Serani will be part of the May Fest activities next year. Other international artists who have performed for May Fest includes Sherwin Winchester, Tania Stephens, Gyptian and Red Hot Flames …..
