3canal Kaiso Show
Join us on our mission as Independent Artists to continue creating impactful work which tells the story of our times in our unique voice.
As inheritors of a rich legacy of Trinidad & Tobago's artistic expressions through music, theatre and mas, we find ourselves at the junction between the traditional & the contemporary, connecting the generations, challenged, yet undaunted by the realities of shrinking funding streams, for artistic non-commercial endeavour.
21 years ago we created The 3canal Show, with the realisation that the "fete and party circuit" was not the best fit for the full expression of our music and there was a bigger story waiting to be told, through performance, which required a different type of production.
21 years later we're still independently producing the Show each year, to substantial critical acclaim.
This year we presented The 3canal KAISO Show and expanded our band to include an exciting horn section, and added a phalanx of Backup singers; sights and sounds synonymous with KAISO to which we paid homage.
The musical storytelling was a marriage of gems from our repertoire and the 2025 recordings, interwoven with dramatic elements, and a dash of dance to tell the story of KAISO and to take a jab at local & global issues as only good KAISO can, with Lyrics, Melody, Style and a touch of humour. .
Given the tremendous response to this year's production, we went the extra mile to ensure we had it properly recorded and mixed so we could be proud to show and share with you in case you missed the Live Show.
This is our way to give back to the people from whom the inspiration flows, the ones who "carry it"
