EDITOR'S LETTER

Hello Soca People

Wow, where has the time gone? And where is the sunshine we should be basking in around about now? These are questions I ask myself all the time, but it feels even more pressing when it’s almost carnival - somewhere.

In just over six weeks, Soca News will touch the shores of St. Kitts for the 25th edition of the St. Kitts Music Festival. You can see the full artist line-up on page 23, and find more updates at socanews.com/ st-kitts.

We would like your help - so that we can further help you - by taking our reader survey. You'll find it on page 22, and on completion you’ll be eligible to win an Amazon voucher. Look out for our June issue, where you'll find a full list of mas bands and their portrayals for Notting Hill Carnival 2023.

As always, we're looking for new writers. If you'd like to put pen to paper and see your words in print, please email jc@socanews.com.

Yours In Soca
