"Tréson is a Canadian Reggae Gem" ~ Reggae North
Longtime Toronto DJ and radio host DJ Chocolate described Tréson’s voice as “vocal honey”. On stage, his voice and demeanor unite as a spiritual energy that reaches out and touches everyone who is listening. On any given song, this gifted singer-songwriter can reveal the soul of Otis Redding, the pure pop energy of Michael Jackson, the lovers rock vibe of Dennis Brown, the gospel gravitas of Kirk Franklin and the reggae firebrand presence of Peter Tosh. His personal story is one of overcoming incredible odds, such as growing up in numerous foster homes, to achieve so many of his musical dreams.
As a solo artist, Tréson’s first single, "Moments", quickly became one of the most requested songs on radio programs in Toronto, charting on Flow 93.5 FM, CHRY (now VIBE 105), CIUT 89.5 FM, CKLN and the CBC and can currently be heard on regular rotation on FLOW 98.7 FM, Rootsreggaeradio.com with host DJ Chocolate.
