And while Ky-Mani will be on the riverside on Saturday - on Friday night there will be a concert for the people at the BTL park. It's an event organized by the City Council to celebrate the one year anniversary of the park that has re-defined the social scene in Belize City. It will be free to all and the main attraction will be Eljai - the Belizean born reggae crooner who had his name all over the world - and has come back home to share his talent:..

The concert starts at 6:00 on Friday night at the BTL Park. And featuring an all-Belizean lineup, it promises to be good, actually better than you might expect and that's because the promoter has brought in a musical director who is home grown but internationally known. He is Michael Hyde, keyboardist for countless international reggae acts from Ziggy Marley through Burning Spear to Inner Circle. Today he told us what he will bring to this show:..

And, in case you didn't know, on Sunday Hyde won his second Grammy Award as part of Ziggy Marley's Fly Rasta album - which won the grammy for the best Reggae Album. So how did this kid from George Street in Belize City reach such dizzying heights? He told us today:..

In case you couldn't make him out in the footage, Michael Hyde is the brother of legendary DJ, Elden Stone Jam Hyde.
