HOW TO BUILD A TREEHOUSE

Kaieteur Falls, is highly regarded as one of the most Majestic destinations on Planet Earth, and it is housed right in our backyard. Our history as a people is very diverse, and I would like to reflect some of our country’s rich heritage through my music. The story of Kai is one of our most Ancient stories of Patamona origin that dates back to the beginning of time.

A lone guitarist sits on the Sea Wall, at the coast of the Atlantic Ocean strumming his guitar. He closes his eyes and begins hearing powerful words in the ancient and native Patamona language, perhaps the voice of ‘Kai’. When he opens his eyes, he finds himself in a new, unfamiliar place. Guided by the words he just heard, he begins his journey through the rainforest of
Guyana, towards the ‘Top of the World’. The journey is a tedious one but rewards him with knowledge and wisdom, and a renewed appreciation for his Home, Guyana.

I, above all else, would like to contribute to the preservation and awareness of my country's beautiful culture, heritage and geography. I wish that my music would catch the attention of Guyanese of all ages, whilst instilling a feeling of patriotism and appreciation for our Culture and Heritage. And finally, I dream that my work will be seen and heard by Millions of people around the world, highlighting the beauty of Kaieteur Falls and it’s environs, and even contribute to increased tourism to Guyana and our Interior Heaven. I wish to one day become an ambassador to Guyanese Culture by representing my Country through all forms of Art.
