Video: Tropical sounds on the Morristown Green, courtesy of the Conroy Warren Duo
The Conroy Warren Duo hails from Antigua. You could almost feel the Caribbean breeze yesterday as Conroy Warren and Patrick Gomes played “Yellow Bird” on the Morristown Green.

It was the second installment of “Music Without Borders,” a summer series sponsored by Morristown’s Community Theatre and the Arts Council of the Morris Area. Next up is Los Ciegos Del Barrio, on July 13 at 6:30 p.m. outside the Community Theatre.
