He may not be the most popular soca artiste in Trinidad and Tobago these days but that doesn’t stop Shurwayne Winchester from delivering some of the very best melodies annually. He’s been consistent and he’s been true to his personal mission so when people on the outside of his inner circle say, “nobody wanna hear  Shurwayne”, he simply ignores it and is motivated to give even more.

Shurwayne's anthem for his Tobago Love All inclusive event is called, "Welcome"

Two soca tracks- both on the groovy side of the soca spectrum, have already been released ahead of the upcoming carnival season. The most recent song is definitely one for the visitors- a song that’s melodically on point to say the least. It’s lyrics too are powerful and real. He’s always sung for country so that’s nothing new but Shurwayne this morning said this particular song which he’s called, “Welcome”, will be the theme song for his Tobago Love all inclusive event set to be held on New Years day in his homeland, Tobago.

The former Road March, Power and Groovy Soca champ has had to deal with his fair share of criticism in the past, but he’s shown that his spirit cannot be dampened and his back is broad, no doubt. He’s been called soft, and the father of two beautiful baby girls has even been called gay by some, but amid it all, he’s shown nothing but strength and love for his country and the people who make up the twin island nation. “I have more important things to study. Each time things are said, I get stronger. Look at what Christ went through for mankind… who am I?,” he said in a radio interview this morning, adding that he has come to the conclusion that no matter what you do, somebody will always have something negative to say.

Shurwayne says he has four power soca tracks for release ahead of Carnival 2016. Asked about the recent outburst by fellow entertainer Fay-Ann Lyons in Miami about patrons toward the front of the stage who became upset when those dancing in wild abandon came too close to them, or pushed them accidentally, Shurwayne said artistes do feed off the energy of people in the crowd.
