ANTIGUA
Hey everyone!
Wow, I can’t even begin to describe how incredible my time in Antigua was. As I wrap up my world tour, I keep thinking back to the beautiful island of Antigua, where I had the chance to perform, explore, and connect with the most amazing fans. It was honestly one of those places that completely took my breath away, and I feel so lucky to have experienced it.
I landed in Antigua after a long flight, and as soon as I stepped off the plane, the warm, tropical air hit me like a hug. It was exactly what I needed after the whirlwind of performances and traveling. The island’s natural beauty is unreal — lush greenery, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and the kind of sandy beaches you only see in postcards.
I stayed at this incredible resort that overlooked the ocean, and every morning I’d wake up to the sound of waves crashing gently against the shore. It felt like paradise — and honestly, it was hard to imagine that I was about to work here when it felt like such a vacation.
When it was finally time for my performance, I couldn’t believe the energy in the crowd. Antigua has such a vibrant music scene, and the people here are so passionate about music. The concert venue was set in a beautiful outdoor amphitheater, with the Caribbean Sea as the backdrop. Can you imagine that? The sun was setting while I was performing, and the atmosphere was absolutely electric.
I’ve performed in a lot of places on this tour, but there’s something about the way Antigua’s warmth and culture radiate into the crowd that made the show feel extra special. The audience sang along to every word, and the love and support they gave me were overwhelming. I’ll never forget how we all came together through music — it was like we were all part of something bigger than just a performance.
After the show, we hung out on the beach for a bit, and I was able to meet some of my fans in a more personal way. We talked about music, life, and everything in between. There’s something magical about connecting with people from all over the world, and I’ll forever be grateful for those moments.
I couldn’t just visit Antigua for the music, right? I had to take time to explore the island, and I’m so glad I did. Antigua is full of surprises! I took a boat tour around the coastline and saw some of the most stunning beaches I’ve ever laid eyes on. The water is so clear, you can see straight to the bottom, even when it’s deep! And the sunsets… well, they speak for themselves. There’s nothing quite like watching the sky turn into a canvas of oranges and pinks while you’re surrounded by the Caribbean Sea.
One of my favorite memories was visiting Shirley Heights, where you can get an amazing panoramic view of the island. The historic forts, the tropical landscape, and the sound of the steel drums in the background made it feel like I was stepping back in time, yet still in the present. I also got the chance to try some local food, like saltfish and fritters. It was the perfect blend of flavor, and I loved learning more about the island’s culture through its food.
Oh, and let’s not forget the people! The Antiguan locals are some of the friendliest people I’ve ever met. Everywhere I went, they made me feel so welcomed. Whether it was at a local market, on the beach, or at the resort, everyone was warm, kind, and eager to share a story or give a recommendation. I’ve always believed that music is a universal language, but I can honestly say that in Antigua, it felt like a shared experience with everyone I met.
As my tour continues, I carry Antigua with me in my heart. The beauty, the music, the culture — it’s all intertwined in a way that I’ll never forget. The experience was a reminder of why I do what I do: to connect with people, to share joy, and to create unforgettable memories.
I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to perform in such an incredible place. I truly hope I get to come back soon, whether for another show or just to soak in more of the island’s magic. Thank you to everyone who came to the concert, to everyone who showed me love, and to Antigua for making this leg of the tour one for the books.
Until next time,
