In 2015, parang historian, vocalist and musician Khalil 'Yasseen' Ashraph had re-introduced Music Festival & National Parang Mandolin Champion Rico DG to Cuatro talisman Marc Paul ‘Hospey’ Hospedales, and the three formed a musical unison. They brought in Rico's 1st son Sergio Camejo – four-time Schools Soca Monarch Champion – to sing & play tenor bass. The sound from this quartet was infectious.
In 2018, they found the perfect complement with two women – Shauntel Marcano, a clinical maracs player & one of the sweetest voices from the hills of Paramin and Tinika Davis, professional percussionist. These paranderos spread the knowledge of authentic parang of the ole time days, with cutting arrangements and electrifying performances to excite even the most skeptical of patrons!
Today, even with La Mansión sleuth of new talented musicians, the journey continues with Rico DG at the helm to promote the traditional sounds of parang with a electrifying vibe! COMING TO A PARANG EVENT NEAR YOU!
