Well we’ve come to the conclusion of Trinidad and Tobago Carnival Season. In all the glee you might have missed which band one band of the year, who won King and Queen of the bands, and most importantly who claimed the road.

Who says you can’t work in your third trimester of pregnancy? Fay-Ann Lyons-Alvarez defied all odds when she claimed the Groovy Monarch Title with her song “Heavy T Bumper”, Power Monarch Title with her song “Meet Super Blue” as well as road march title with “Meet Super Blue” which played on the road 410 times. Fay-Ann showed the world this year who really is the boss by working hard taking on criticism while delivering stellar performances.

On the road she did not perform but that didn’t stop many revelers from showing their support each and every time her song came on. Rags, flags, hands, beers, powder you name it something was in the air every time the intro started “Hands up…Hands up…Hands up” Fay-Ann truly won the road and took Trinidad by storm. She leaves this Carnival season by being the first female artist to win Power Soca Monarch. In all the glee Destra Garcia came in second with her song “Bacchanal” which played 76 times on the road.
