The Return of Adesh?

Adesh SamarooIt has not been two years yet since his major accident, but Adesh Samaroo, former Chutney Soca Monarch, has refused to let anything keep him from getting on the big stage this year. In April of 2005, he was involved in an automobile accident that left him in critical condition.

After months of recovery in Trinidad, he journeyed to New York for further medical help. He returned to the local scene to perform seven months later on November 12 in Skinner Park, San Fernando. The concert, which was entitled “The Return Of Adesh, Thanks For Life” saw the soca star in full swing doing his dance moves and singing his top chutney tunes that propelled him to the top of the ladder.

January 2007 and all the soca stars are busy performing in both private and public functions in the lead up to Carnival. Adesh is one such performer who did not waste much time in producing his fourth album entitled, Rum Caused This Success. His tunes for the competitive stage this year are “Oh Julay” and “Rum Like That.” He is contracted to perform at least 26 shows in the lead up to Carnival.
