The Bonner Cornerstone music team is working assiduously as they prepare for their big concert, dubbed 'Culture in the City', which will feature the Bonner Brothers and friends. The concert is set for tomorrow evening at the Zinc Shack in Montego Bay.

This event is being staged to celebrate the Bonner Brothers musical legacy and will feature all four Bonner Brothers - Pliers, Spanner Banner, Richie Spice and Snatcha - along with Junior X and Timmi Burrell.

Pliers is the eldest of the musical Bonner brothers, and he is one half of the famous dancehall group Chaka Demus and Pliers, which is known worldwide for smash hits such as Twist and Shout, Tease Me, Murder She Wrote, She Don't Like Nobody and I Wanna Be Your Man. He began his career in 1987 as a solo act and scored several hits such as Lover Is Burning, Bias Dem Bias and Tracey, before teaming up with Chaka Demus in the early '90s. He is currently enjoying much attention with his new solo single titled Sweet Memories.

Spanner Banner was the second member of the Bonner clan to hit the big times musically. He blazed his way on to the local music in 1988 with his breakout single Life Goes On, which was an instant hit locally and abroad. Several hits and two decades later, he is still in the game, touring and performing all over the world. His single titled Rolling Stones from his recently released album I'm A Winner is currently racing up the reggae charts worldwide.

Hot reggae act

Richie Spice is the third member of the clan to make his mark musically. He is currently one of the hottest reggae acts in the world. Fresh from his recent overseas engagements, which included a tour of Australia and double dates in French Guiana, Richie Spice will be more than eager to please his fans in the Second City.

Richie Spice has a huge catalogue of hits which includes Earth A Run Red, World Is A Cycle, Street Life, Brown Skin, What A Day, Grooving My Girl and Di Plane Land. He is also a very good performer and never fails to deliver the goods.

The youngest of the clan is Snatcha, who was formerly known as Snatcha Lion. He has been travelling the world over the last few years performing as the opening act for Richie Spice in places such as England, the United States, the Caribbean and Bermuda.

Number-one hit

He also scored a number-one hit a few years ago with a collaboration with Richie Spice titled Living Ain't Easy. His recently released single, No War, is enjoying good rotation locally and abroad. Snatcha has not performed much on local soil lately and should be very eager to show the fans in the west what he is made of.

Junior X is known for songs like Plead My Cause and Seek Your Goals. He is currently climbing up the charts with another hit-bound song titled The Pill.

Rounding up the performances is singer Timmi Burrell, who is a Spanish Town native but calls the west his home. He has been carving a niche for himself in the music business with singles such as Children Crying, Why Did You Leave Me and It's My Time Now. He is also known to be a very good stage performer and will no doubt continue this trend in Montego Bay.

Music will be provided by Current from Techtris sound system, and MC duties handled by IRIE FM's Ron Muschette. Admission for this event will be $1,000 at the gate. Showtime is set for 9 p.m.
