Photos by Martei Korley—
In between hiking to boiling lakes and swimming in hot sulfur springs (more on all that soon), LargeUp caught the 16th annual World Creole Music Festival on our trip to Dominica last month. While hanging backstage at the venue, Dominica’s national stadium Windsor Park, we got a chance to catch up with some old friends from Jamaica, too: namely Tarrus Riley, Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley and their respective bands. Scroll through to see Martei Korley’s candid photos.
