FREEDOM BEYOND RECOGNITION  T.Brown/Living Nation 2009-1

The songs on this CD come from my soul. These sounds are the stories of my life and experiences and observation that I think a lot of people share but don’t communicate in a way that brings resolution to the issues express in some of these lyrics. That’s why this CD exist to bring the image to the front of our minds and start the process of understanding the oneness of our world and our issues within this world.

I have been performing and writing music my whole life. It is what I do best.

I believe I was giving this blessed gift to communicate with people and to also heal people’s souls and make them enjoy life even if it is for one brief moment. I write music that mirrors what I see and experience in my life. It’s sometimes too realistic, but life has always been that way to me. I love celebration so I have to create happy music as well as thoughtful music. I think music is really good when you get a visualization through sound or you get an emotion “rush” through the conveyance of the song. Then it hits that part of your soul that is home to your spirit, then music is good.

Barrington Castillo Places Third!
In the September Celebrations Patriotic Song Competition, Winners Announced

September Celebrations 2009 is on its way as on August 15th, the House of Culture was buzzing with hundreds of attendees gathered for a night of fun and excitement at the Patriotic & Carnival Song Competition. Barrington Castillo of La Isla Bonita, San Pedro, captured third place with $1,000.00 and a trophy for his song “Shout Belize”.
In total, there were 17 submissions for the Patriotic Song and 11 submissions for the Carnival Song from which seven semi-finalists from each category were selected. The competition was open to Belizean nationals living at home and abroad. The Patriotic Songs had to be new original pieces with less than five minutes duration and included lyrics that would instill patriotism and a sense of national pride. The songs had to be focused on the history of St. George’s Caye and/or Belize’s Independence.
Bea Armstrong, Alexander Evans and Herchel Armstrong of Belize City, wowed the audience with “Belize – We are Free”, which garnered them 1st place in the Patriotic Song Competition. Their prize package included $3,000.00 and a trophy. Second place winner Nello Player (Kernel Parks), also of Belize City, was awarded with $2,000.00 plus a trophy for his song “Take Me Back to Belize” and Barrington Castillo of La Isla Bonita, San Pedro, captured third place with $1,000.00 and a trophy for his song “Shout Belize”.
Of course, what would September Celebrations be without Carnival Songs to set off the “bramming session.”

Biography

24 July 1934, Durant, Mississippi, USA,
d. 15 February 1987. This versatile singer first came to prominence in 1963
with the self-penned "How Can I Forget?" which was covered at the
same time by Ben E. King. Holiday later joined the Minit label where he made
several excellent recordings, ranging from the "Memphis"-influenced
R&B of "You Won't Get Away" to the urban soul of "I'm Gonna
Move To The City". His biggest hit on Minit was "Baby I Love
You" (1966), a bigger hit for Little Milton in 1970. Holiday also recorded
with former Raelette Clydie King, and later pursued a career as a songwriter on
his departure from the label. A partnership with Randy Myers and Jackie
DeShannon produced several excellent compositions, including the much-covered "Put
A Little Love In Your Heart", recorded successfully in 1989 by Al Green
and Annie Lennox. Holiday died of heart failure in 1987.
