Bankie Banx: King of the Dune celebrates the vibrant life of Anguillian singer/songwriter Bankie Banx, often dubbed "the Bob Dylan of the Caribbean." Growing up on an isolated island, Bankie dared to dream big, blending influences from British pop, reggae, Rastafarianism, and Pan-Africanism. His breakout hit, "Prince of Darkness," catapulted him and Anguilla onto the world stage, attracting the likes of Jimmy Buffett and Bob Dylan.

After a decade touring the world, Bankie returned to Anguilla to create the iconic Moonsplash music festival and the Dune Preserve, where he now reigns as a pirate-guru, making music on his own terms.
