Artist History
“ AS THE SONG GO’S WHEN WELL WE STOP FIGHTING EACH OTHER DOWN.” Charged with intense emotions and deep social consciousness, his messages are an appealing blend of reggae, soul and pop music that are as ageless as time. Born Gregory Colin Bailey in the beautiful twin-island nation of Antigua & Barbuda, CAUSION knew from an early age that he wanted to be a professional singer/songwriter and musician. He grew up in a family, where many members are established musicians, and he did not have to search far for either support or inspiCAUSION first enjoyed success in 1988 with the single African Girl, featuring a British DJ named Spider Don. It reached the top of the Caribbean charts and gained him a considerable following. From 1990- 94 he record four singles, Different World, All About Love, Crossroads and All Night Long. All of which received heavy rotation on the Caribbean airwaves. His 1995 cover of Breaking up, an Alton Ellis original, featuring Miss Linda of (Worl-A Girl), made Brixton the Hitman’s WKUSF 92.3FM Top 10 chart that summer in California. His 1996 cover of Groove Theory’s Tell Me was also very well received both in the U.S and in the Caribbean.ration. So the story begins. He has toured throughout the U.S and the West Indies with some of Reggae’s best and brightest artists like Rita Marley, Third World, Dennis Brown, Freddie McGregor and Judy Mowatt, to name a few, giving stellar performances each and every time. In 1995, he was part of the Tribute to Garnet Silk Tour to the Caribbean along with Lt. Stitchie, Merciless and Professor Nuts. He was honored in 1995 to be the first Antiguan Reggae artist to perform at Jamaica’s Sumfest . He opened for among others, Buju Banton, Mickey Spice and Mykal Rose. The entire experience heightened CAUSION’S awareness of the magnitude of his message and his responsibility to the public.In late May 1996, on the Mega Youth Tour of the Virgin Islands, CAUSION closed for R&B acts, J’Son, Silk and Monica. That year he also opened for Worl-A-Girl in St. Thomas. He then went on to open for Born Jamericans and Worl-A-Girl again, at the Bob Marley Music Festival at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C. He also appeared at several well-known club stops in the United States, including Tramps, S.O.B’s, New Music Café, Jam-Rock NY, Main Street, Outback Lodge VA. Wild Hare in Chicago. CAUSION went on to appear on (Fox-5) Good Day NY, Spirit of Unity Tour, Reggae Cari-Fest NY, Bob Marley Day Camden NJ, Cry Freedom Antigua, Lions Den NY and Nell's NY. |
