Published: July 14, 2020, 2:32 p.m.

Davon Carty is a thinker. Davon Carty is a doer. He is sometimes controversial. However he is always willing to teach and assist anyone in need. These days, Davon has rekindled his passion for restoring vintage cars, trucks and SUVs. The brands range from Britain\u2019s Land Rover and Italy\u2019s Alfa Romeo to Sweden\u2019s Saab. He says that the process brings him joy.\n\xa0Just as these cars migrated and ended up in junk yards on the Caribbean island of Anguilla, Davon too has left the island\u2019s shores to as he puts it \u201cfind wisdom.\u201d\n\xa0Fifteen years ago Davon saw the need to improve the music industry on Anguilla. Like many others he saw an abundance of raw talent but there was no real structure. With a group of friends and business partners, Davon went to work. In time he would create the band \u201cBritish Dependency\u201d that would tour internationally and organize for artists to perform at New York\u2019s Radio City Music hall, Washington D.C.\u2019s Warner Theatre and at venues in Morocco, San Andreas Colombia, Guadeloupe and venues in 31 Cities across the United States. He also assisted in getting Anguillian artist Deanna Mussington in position to launch her international career on the British version of X-Factor.\n\xa0You see, Davon by nature is a restorer. Not unlike the cars, he has taken time, patience and has paid strict attention to detail in recrafting not only artists, but by extension an entire industry. Perhaps his ability to encourage people comes from his days as a social worker. \xa0In addition to his cars, Davon along with business partners are now headed toward revolutionizing everyone\u2019s perception of what a beach bar is. Seemingly the best is yet to come.\n\xa0This is the story\u2026 thus far\u2026 Of Davon Carty.
