Antigua St John's - Maxi Priest will be performing at this year's Antigua Sailing Week on Lay Day Eve. According to organisers, Lay Day Eve is usually the night when race crew let their hair down during the regatta.

Priest was described as the most successful reggae solo artist in the world, second only to the legendary Bob Marley. He will be performing live on April 26 at Shirley Heights Lookout amidst panoramic views of English and Falmouth Harbours and the magical Caribbean Sea beyond.

Maxi Priest has a distinctive style of reggae fusion with a huge string of hits on both sides of the Atlantic and around the globe, the release said.

He is one of only two British reggae acts to have an American Billboard number one. A duet with Roberta Flack reached the American Top Ten and his double act with Shaggy was also a big hit in the United States.

Maxi Priest has had a long association with UB40, including a recent sell out UK tour. Maxi Priest last performed live in Antigua in 2008.
