Jamaicans can enjoy a soulful concert featuring Romain Virgo for Father’s Day (June 16) as the reggae star performs ‘The Gentle Man‘ in concert at the Ranny Williams Entertainment Centre in St Andrew, brought to audiences by Johnnie Walker.

Performing hits from his latest album, ‘The Gentle Man,’ like ‘Been There Before‘, ‘Switch On You‘, and ‘Driver‘, the event promises to be an extraordinary musical experience, starting at 9:00 pm and with gates opening at 6:00 pm.

The album has garnered significant attention in the reggae scene, exploring identity, relationships, and personal growth themes.

The album features collaborations with esteemed artists, including Masicka, Patoranking, Jesse Royal, and Capleton, ensuring a dynamic and unforgettable experience.

Fresh from his successful US tour and electrifying performances in St Ann, Montego Bay, and St Elizabeth, Romain Virgo is poised to make a lasting impression in Kingston.

The Gentle Man tour has been a huge success so far, and I’m thrilled to bring it to Kingston on Father’s Day,” he says. “Fathers need something to smile about; we must show them love and appreciation.” He hopes his message of hope will resonate with the audience, stating, “Wanting them to see that they’re important to society… we need more fathers and father figures around to help strengthen the growth of society.”

“It’s a special opportunity to connect with the people who have supported me from the start, and I’m grateful and excited to share this experience with them. They make this event truly special.” the ‘Love Doctor‘ added.

Virgo expressed that while he’ll be creating magic onstage, Johnnie Walker will be making magic in the setup and experience of the show. 

Junior brand manager Lasana Wilson highlighted, “Johnnie Walker is a premium brand for those who appreciate life’s finer things and strive for success; this aligns perfectly with Romain Virgo’s journey and the brand’s ethos. Johnnie Walker will engage patrons with an ultra-premium lounge experience in the VIP area. While Romain Virgo’s performance will be the main entertainment for the night, those in the exclusive Johnnie Walker VIP lounge can enjoy a premium ambience alongside his music.”

Patrons who purchase a VIP ticket will have access to premium Johnnie Walker cocktails throughout the night, but the event caters to an all-around musical experience for everyone. Patrons, in general, will also have Johnnie Walker specials offered to them all night from the general bar.

Romain Virgo expressed his gratitude for the partnership with Johnnie Walker, noting that being an ambassador for such a prestigious brand is an honour. “We align well, especially with pushing The Gentle Man and everything Johnnie Walker stands for. And so to have them on board in executing such a show in this fashion that we have already seen in all the other parishes that we performed so far, it’s a blessing, and it’s an experience that I know my fans and the people who look up to me and the people who look up to Jamaica will appreciate.”

The Gentle Man concert promises an unforgettable experience, with Romain Virgo aiming to have special surprises in store.

He said, “Sure, there will be surprises at the show, but I can’t give away too much—that would spoil the fun! But I can promise that the entire experience will blow away everyone attending the show. From the talented artists who will perform to the excitement on stage, it will be a total package. And for the people of Kingston, especially my loyal supporters, they’re in for something extraordinary on Father’s Day.”
