After scoring the biggest hit of 2009 with the summer anthem Holiday featuring Ding Dong, on the Notice Production label, Chevaughn is once again poised as a top contender to clinch this summer's title, teaming up with Bugle and Razz & Biggy for the high-energy song titled Summer Break.However, with the recent release of a 10-track self-titled mixtape, three new videos and several singles including Beauty Queen on Digicel's Next Generation rhythm CD compilation, Chevaughn will have to postpone the celebrations as he makes final preparation to leave the island this week for a North American tour with Rock and Roll Hall of Famer and music icon Jimmy Cliff, who is also the headliner for the six-week assignment.
The tour will see them making a thorough sweep of Canada and the Unites States of America, before returning home late August.
"It is a great honour and a privilege for any entertainer to tour with someone like Jimmy Cliff, he is an icon in this business and we, as the next generation of recording artistes, can learn so much from his wealth of knowledge and experience. These six weeks I will not just go there as Chevaughn the artiste, but as an ambassador for our music and Jamaica, land we love"
On his return, there will be no time to rest. Chevaughn is expected to join fellow band members C-Sharp for a European tour accompanied by reggae royalty, Rita Marley.
