Mr. Pitts: Cayo Street Musician

Video of the day.  Mr. Pitts was interviewed, and he tells his story of learning to play as a street musician in New York.  It's an older video, but worth a watch.  Mr. Pitts celebrates 75 years this year, and we thank him for the music and positivity.  Keep on playing, good sir!

 

"Antonvich was a positive, happy man, whom indeed filled the streets on main street in San ignacio, Belize (Cayo District) with the music from his flute. Here we have a few words with him, hear about his background playing flute on the streets of NYC and his joy to be back in Cayo, schooling himself every day on the art of street music."

The Garifuna Collective is on their 2 month North American tour right now, and they have started an indiegogo campaign to help raise funds for their journey.  They have uploaded a video on the page from their rehearsal at the Soul Project here in Cayo.   They'll spend 55 days on the road, travel 18,450 miles, and will have had 275 Hotel rooms when it's all finished.

 

"We have embarked on a historic two month tour of North America performing at many prestigious music festivals and venues in Canada and the United States.  The tour includes some 25 cities such as Toronto, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Vancouver, Chicago, Washington DC, Edmonton, Portland, Calgary, Minneapolis, Winnipeg and New York.  This tour coincides with the release of Ayo (Goodbye), our long anticipated album in honour of Belize's late cultural icon, Andy Palacio."
