Jeffrey Wilson is a young talented Caymanian artist who fell in love with music at the tender age of nine.

Wilson’s career began when he met his first music teacher, who introduced him to the diverse world of music.

Wilson has performed at several private functions, with many foreign and local government officials in attendance.

But a few performances stand out in particular such as supporting Gramps Morgan of Morgan Heritage, Dwayne Stephenson, and especially Alicia Keys at the 2009 Cayman JazzFest.

Jeffrey says he felt honoured to serenade the Miss Cayman contestants this year.

“I felt honoured and thankful for the opportunity. It was a nice show.”

Mr. Wilson and Manager, James Anglin of Gold Finger Entertainment said Jeffrey has a few upcoming events including an official video shoot with Chino.

“Another single will be released soon and we are looking to do a video shoot at the end of the month, for which Chino will be coming to Cayman.

“Currently I am rehearsing with my local live band called Unity to do live shows around the island.”

iNews asked Jeffrey if the public could expect any other artist features in the near future.

“The next single, is in production right now and will be featuring Ding-Dong. It hasn’t been named as yet but the release is looking to be somewhere in the early part of next year.”

Jeffrey added, “ It felt great to have an international artist on my record and I hope to have other artists like Chino work with me in the future.”

His first single “For the First Time” was released in October 2010 and he has now released his second single “Desert Rose” featuring Chino McGregor.

Jeffrey is confident he is on the road to achieving his dream of international acclaim through his dedication and passion for music.
