The singer and songwriter known as Trevor English has released his latest single, “Give Mi Little Loving Girl.” The track has been released on the Takae Records music label. Full of rhythm and island flavor, “Give Mi Little Loving Girl” is the most recent reason Trevor English has been revered as one of the best contemporary reggae performers of the last three decades both in the United States and the Caribbean, as well as further abroad.
Trevor English (who is also often billed as Trevor AKA English) cites as main artistic influences such legends of the island sound as Bob Marley, Dennis Brown, Delroy Wilson, Bob Andy, and former ska artist from the Police, Sting. His own inimitable singing and music composition style falls not far from these trees, either. English’s singing on “Give Mi Little Loving Girl” is expertly executed, rich in natural undertones yet startlingly precise.
This should not come as a surprise, as Trevor English has been singing professionally for over 25 years.
“I started music at an early age,” writes the musician, “listening to to all the great reggae artists of my era.”
Trevor English was born in London, England to Jamaican parents from Malvern, St. Elizabeth. He emigrated to California’s music hub of Los Angeles in 1982, where he immediately gained traction as a performer and began to work with some of the most influential reggae artists of the last three decades. His roster of legends with whom he has worked reads like a list of must-hear musicians from the genre: Joe Higgs, Tinga Stewart, Fully Fullwood, Santa Davis, Tony Chin, Pato Banton, Papa Michigan, Richie Spice, Warrior King, Konshens, and Yellow Man.
English recently took part in the Sing with Reggae Legends competition, held at Don the Beachcomber’s in “Surf City,” Huntington Beach, CA.
Asked to describe the message his new single has for his fans, English said simply, “Love, fun and harmony.”
“Give Mi Little Loving Girl” by Trevor English is available online worldwide.
