As persons of faith, Audley Rollen and his wife Dawn Marie Wisdom project the important roles passion and trust play in marriage. It’s part of the message for ‘A Time For Love’, their Valentine’s Day show which returns February 12 after a two-year absence. Covid-19 prevented them from mounting the event in 2021 and 2022, but Rollen stated that all is in place for the comeback show at Jacaranda Golf and Country Club in Plantation.
“Those who will be in attendance this year will experience a classy event as usual. Doors open at 5:30 pm, roses for all ladies, there will be renewal of vows, dinner is at 7:00 pm and door prize will be two days, one night stay at the iconic Gault Ocean Manor Resort on Ft Lauderdale Beach,” Rollen disclosed.
The veteran singer is also among the artists scheduled to perform. The live show will be completed by the Edwards Quartet, Samuel Muir and Jermaine Ramsey, with music by DJ Keith.
Dawn Marie Wisdom, who like her husband, is an ordained minister of religion, will give a presentation on what it takes to have a lasting marriage.
“Over the years this event has grown immensely and its return is well overdue. We look forward to this breath of fresh air Valentines Day event where there will be romance, renewal of vows, fine dining, entertainment, and an enlightening session on what it takes to have a great marriage and relationship,” said Rollen, whose singing career started in Jamaica during the mid-1960’s.
In the late 1960’s and early 1970’s, he was a member of The Hippy Boys, The Emotions and Youth Professionals, which at different stages included bassist Robbie Shakespeare and keyboardist Bernard “Touter” Harvey.
As a solo act back then, Rollen’s hit songs included Repatriation and Hallelujah (covered recently by Glen Washington). In recent years, he has re-entered reggae charts with Never Knew Love Till You and Close to You.
