Bankie Banx is one of the most distinctive voices to come out of the Caribbean. His raspy baritone has led many to proclaim his sound as a combination of Marley and Dylan, with a touch of Sinatra. Bankie’s laid back persona and island lifestyle evoke Jimmy Buffett.
Despite the comparisons, Bankie remains a unique talent on the international music landscape. Bankie burst onto the Caribbean music scene more than 30 years ago with an album that included 5 number hits. Yet the continual evolution of his musical sound has helped him to remain fresh and win over a new generation of fans.
His music fuses reggae, folk and R&B into a sound that is distinctly Bankie Banx.
