Dreams come to us all, but only a few are brave enough to take a leap of faith and venture into the valley of trails and tribulations to accomplish their dreams. Despite the financial limitations and lack of musical resources, the Lunka Boys​ still rose. There are no excuses for these young men, just an undying will to prevail over any obstacle that threatens their vision. This is what being a Turks Islander is all about. Though the odds were against the success of the Lunka Boys, through some twist of faith, they were able to form a group and permanently cement their names in the history books of the Turks and Caicos islands. Their story is inspiring. Their story teaches us that "when there seems to be no way of achieving our dreams, we can create a way" as we are creators of our destinys.
The group consist of Ashad Bain​ Missick Davonte​ Kyo Simpson​ McKeever Lewis Jr.​ Cristhofer E. Lugo​ and Patrick Guirand​. The instrument they play is called a "Kalunka" which produces a new sound that has been recently added to the Junkanoo family. Every week they perfrom with We Funk Junkanoo Group at Fish Fry(be there!). Their most notable performances was at the 50th South Caicos Regatta Celebration.
These are our very own local Legends and Pioneers. Let's not allow them to feel discorage. Share and support their vision of making the Kalunka a worldwide recognizable instrument. Let's support the story of the "Lunka Boys".
