[ About Us ]

WHAT IS CARIBBEAN EKCO?

EKCO Nation is an organization dedicated to promoting positive music, media and content by local and regional Caribbean Gospel music artistes. We believe that this is a key element to creating opportunities for positive impact for Caribbean artistes and youth, and countering the negative culture influencing our communities. These objectives are the impetus for “Caribbean EKCO: One People, One Sound”, the 2nd annual Caribbean EKCO Festival to be held from October 4-13, 2018.

On the heels of our successful inaugural Caribbean EKCO festival as part of CARIFESTA XIII hosted in Barbados last year, this year’s exciting festival will comprise of a mega concert, school tours, prison outreach concert and workshops for writers and artistes. This programme of events will assist  Caribbean artistes in the development and promotion of their craft as well as foster strategies for constructive engagement of our youth.

In addition to regional artistes we have invited promoters, managers and other executives in the music industry from the US and the UK to build network with participating artistes and educate them on how to be successful in penetrating these markets.

WE BELIEVE…

Today, there is a great need to reach our generation with a positive message that is relatable to them and culture shifting. Caribbean Gospel Music, Media and the Arts is that vehicle and God is calling forth a Sound out of the Caribbean, that will change our Nations and impact the World.
