SummerStage Anywhere and Amazon Music is excited to host all-female performances by Trinidadian Soca singer-songwriters Nailah Blackman, Nadia Batson, and Patrice Roberts. Nailah Blackman is most strongly associated with the soca genre. Nailah Blackman’s grandfather, the late Garfield Blackman, also known as Lord Shorty or Ras Shorty I, invented the style of music known as Jamoo and is also credited with inventing soca as a means of reinvigorating calypso music. Nadia Batson was a runner-up in the Power Category at the 2007 International Soca Monarch with her song “My Land” with Kees Dieffenthaller. Patrice Roberts came to national attention in 2005 with the huge hit collaboration “The Islands” with Bunji Garlin. One of her greatest achievements was being named the youngest female Road March winner for her collaboration with Machel Montano titled “Band Of The Year.”
