When Sonique was sixteen her mother re-married and moved back to Trinidad, she refused to move with her mother and two siblings and instead stayed in England moving into the YMCA, but with mounting debt and disgusted by the sexual advances of the hostel warden, she moved out and slept on the streets.However, at the age of seventeen, a youth worker commented that she had a nice voice and suggested she utilize it, so she put together a reggae band called “Fari” in which she ended up writing all the music. She credits this band with getting her through her time on the streets.Sonique Backing Tracks –  I Put A Spell On You  …   It Feels So Good  …  Sky  …
