Little Twitch - Tender Touch

LITTLE TWITCH
Born Richard Wright to Yvonne Dallas and Winston Wright, First child for both in Kingston 11. At a early age he knew he was destined to be an entertainer. Because of the community (Cockburn Pen) he was born and grew up in, Twitch was influenced by a lot of reggae artists who lived in the surrounding area. One artist that he truly looked up to and called his mentor was Daddy U Roy who was also a close family friend. After some time Twitch started hanging around U Roy’s sound system which is King Sturagav, where he learned at a early age to chant on the mic. This was in the 1970’s when dancehall reggae music was on the rise, but then came the 1980 election, which was a very bad time in his community. At that time he was living with his grandmother, Mrs. Wright who knew at the time, it was best for him to move away from the community and venture out to a new environment.
