There’s no carnival without bacchanal. Whether it’s national bacchanal stories originating from rumours that take on a life of their own or bacchanal in your friend group. It’s a part of our culture and of course calypsonians never fail to capture the spirit, energy and stories that reflect our collective and individual experiences. From the classic by Super Blue, "Bachannal Time" to the newer anthems like by Kerwin Dubois. This episode of TGiM the Tent is an exciting mix of traditional and contemporary calypsoes with songs from as early as the 1954 Road March to present day and everything bacchanalish in between.
