The 17-year-old musical group which went on sabbatical two months ago, has disbanded and reformed itself with fewer members, under the title Square Roots. Square One no more!
Reliable sources informed SOCA FM yesterday that the former soca ambassadors who lost livewire lead vocalist Alison Hinds at the end of last year, now had a new name and "a fresh new style". According to sources, Square Roots contains five previous members of Square One: vocalist Andy Blood Armstrong who leads the new band, musical director and keyboardist Terry Arthur, vocalist Cecil O'Shaka Riley, and female vocalist Keann Walters. "The group is redefining excellence in entertainment," said one source, noting that Square Roots had been working in the studio on an album for Crop-Over 2005. Leader Armstrong declined to comment on the issue Tuesday, while manager Patrick Cobham could not be reached. Patrick Beckles said neither he nor Jones were officially informed of these changes, but both wanted what was due to them as founders. "It's one thing to know about the sabbatical, whatever that is, but another to realise the name has changed and I've not been informed," said Jones.
