– a new album from Kross Kolor records

KROSS Kolor Records is known for its talent development and its musical impact on the Guyanese music industry.Now they are setting the pace once again by being the only local label to produce a Christmas album of newly composed songs.
“Christmas With Us” was birthed by Melissa Vanilla” Roberts and Simeon Brown, and spearheaded by the man with the midas touch, Burchmore Simon.
Its concept is simple: Create music that represents our version of Christmas; make it collaborative; and infuse it with the empowerment of youth.
To this end, they’ve introduced the power of working together to set the example of what a Guyanese music industry represents.
This project does not only include popular singers like VANiLLA, B52, Tennicia De Freitas, Jovinski, Gavin Mendonca, Shawn English, and Ossie O, but it also embraces unknown artistes like Randy Kirton, T’Shanna Cort, Shivanie Bhola, Sueann “China” Campbell, Romichelle Brummell, Daniel Dondre and Shaundelle “JP” Alleyne courtesy of Vizion Sounds.
Poetess Leeanna Alleyne, steelpan player Andrew Tyndall, Keyboardist Trevor John and Saxophonist Roy Stewart all added an infectious Christmas vibe.
The incorporation of makeup artiste Renee Chester of Bromeliad Inc., designer Keshia Edwards of ShaSha Designs, photographers Azikiwe “Ziggy” Denheart and Dwayne Hackett all make it possible for the success of this project.
Producers and arrangers Burchmore Simon, Simeon’ LilJay’ Browne and Drew Thoven added an effortless magic on the project.
Tune in to Morning Mayhem with Wendell Badrie tomorrow on 98.1FM at 10am; on the Block with Simeon Brown on 100.1FM at 11am; and Sunday on Riser with Tamara Rodney on 94.1FM at 6am for a taste of the album.
Kross Kolor Records has always been a front-runner in Guyana’s music industry, and with the festive season quickly approaching, we encourage companies and the public at large to give the gift of music.
What better way to celebrate than with the sounds of sweet Guyanese tunes? After all, the season just wouldn’t be complete without some good musical vibes.
