Taking to the stage for the 39th St. Maarten Heineken Regatta, Alison Hinds also known as a Queen of SOCA will bring a flavour of the Caribbean to regatta competitors and spectators. Alison released her first album 'Soca Queen' in 2007 and is famous for collaborations with Richie Spice and Shaggy such as "King and Queen" and "Can't Let My Love Go", and for her global smash hit single "Roll It Gal". This will be Alison's second time performing for the event and she was invited back due of the demand from her fan base.
Alison's powerful, emotional vocals and high-energy live shows are legendary in Caribbean music. Her message of love and upliftment for one and all and a mixture of high energy and soulful ballads has cemented her popularity in the hearts of audiences worldwide.
