Featured Artist of the week: Marvelus Productions “Swanks”
Iaryn Williams better known to the public as Swanks is a public figure in the Virgin Islands. He migrated from his beautiful home of St.Kitts to the Virgin Islands at just the age of 4.Believe it or not his musical journey began in church. We had the pleasure of sitting with "Swanks a very successful entrepreneur in the community, and one of the hottest producers in the Caribbean. He's been in the music industry for about 11 to 12 years. December 2017 the lead singer of Kylo and The Stylee Band died tragically in a plane crash which brought his 12 years of being in the music industry to an end. It wasn't the end however because "Big Band" was born, it was sort of the fresh new start that he needed. For the first time in years he's moving the focus to him and not the band. He's into productions these days and has produced with some of the biggest names in the business right now, such as Monea, Pumpa and Adam O. His music, and his transition is influenced by his fans. His fans got him through the most difficult time of his life, and kept him going with music. You can say they were the influence he needed to retire Kylo and The Stylee Band, and give birth to a new era. The era of Big Band, which has been successful thus far. He recently collaborated with Adam O to pull of one of the most successful events for 2019 so far. Wine and Dip Unplugged, Wine and Dip was produced by Marvelus Productions. The next step for Swanks is his much anticipated birthday bash. Swanks Birthday Bash was once limited to only St. Croix, now it has grown and spread to various places such as St. Thomas, Tortola, Anguilla, Atlanta, and Orlando. BBO 2019 is sure to be the event of the year, so stay tuned.
