 The Bonner Brothers –A spicy family affair IN terms of reggae families, the Marleys and Morgans certainly dominate, but the talent of the Bonner Brothers — Richie Spice, Pliers, Spanner Banner and Snatch — is undeniable.

That was not to be on Thursday night when they performed at All Spice at Cafee Delight in New Kingston, another of the live music events for Kingston Music Week. But the low turn-out did not in anyway affect the quality of the performances. The responsibility to bring the show to a close was put in the hands of Richie Spice and he did it justice.
