The John Bull team remains very grateful for the opportunity extended to join other Bahamian retailers in showcasing some of the fabulous local and international brands available on island.” Stealing the show was internationally acclaimed violinist Ezinma, who has performed with artists such as Stevie Wonder, Beyonce and Kendrick Lamar. Ezinma set the mood for the day by starting her performance during the fashion show on the pool deck, sporting a two-piece ensemble, and serenading guests and local models who showcased Bahari’s summer swimsuit collection as well as The Cove’s Escape summer wear. Keeping guests entertained between performances was Bahamian DJ Nyuszi. The Cove summer series continues through July and August, and like the Spritz event, will highlight local retailers, art and entertainment. “We strive to create interactive and meaningful events for our guests. Our local retailers added a unique and exclusive element to Spritz, and Perrier-Jouët was a wonderful addition to the beautiful atmosphere of our pool and beaches. We are very excited to be welcoming local and international guests to The Cove,” added Kapil Sharma, general manager of The Cove.
