In this interview, Christopher Wilcox shares his journey as a Trinidadian-Venezuelan artist with a rich cultural background. Born in Trinidad, he spent a significant amount of time in Venezuela, which influenced his passion for music, especially Parran.
Despite a career in graphic design, Wilcox pursued music, performing with various groups. He later transitioned to solo performances, focusing on boleros and ballads, and other Latin music.
He was set back by COVID-19, but continues to work on his music career, performing at various venues and collaborating with other artists. He also expresses his love for other art forms like painting.
Wilcox’s advice to young artists is to persist in their passion. He aims to bring his unique blend of Trinidadian and Venezuelan music to larger audiences, both locally and internationally.
