V’ghn’s Trouble in the Morning named Tune of the Decade

by Chrislyn Lashington

V’ghn’s Trouble in the Morning has been declared Pan Tune of the Decade by When Steel Talks. The melodic tune has been played in panorama competitions in Grenada, the United Kingdom, New York and so far at least 11 steel orchestras have chosen it as their tune for the 2020 Trinidad & Tobago National Panorama.

When Steel Talks mentioned that Trouble in the Morning has struck a musical chord within the steel band movement and has contributed to the shift of using popular songs within Panorama. 

Band from Space by Amrit Samaroo and Edwin Crazy Ayoung was the best pan tune of the previous decade ending 2009.

V’ghn’s Trouble in the Morning landed him third place at the 2019 International Soca Monarch competition in Trinidad and he is the reigning Groovy Soca Monarch of Grenada, after tying with 4-time winner Dash.
