On an island renowned for its superb vocalists and composers, Sir John Holt and Freddie McGregor stand head and shoulders above the rest. As two of Jamaica’s sweetest singers and most enduring songwriters they have voiced and penned so many of the country's classics that in a way, they have defined the island's sound. Known for their lavishly produced ballads, between them they have recorded over 80 albums, and this tour marks 40 years since the release of the classic album 1000 Volts of Holts.

So bring your loved ones and friends for an unforgettable evening of dancing and singing to the greatest hits of two of Jamaica’s Lovers Rock icons. And to make this a very special Valentine’s evening L.U.S.T. will also entertain you with all their current smash hits.

Up close and personal in this special Valentine’s showcase with Sir John Holt and Freddie McGregor, who will ride the tide high, performing all their favourite hits and helping them to make it through the night Jamaica’s current chart topping super group: L.U.S.T.
