Winston Maynard was born in Tobago but came to Trinidad when he was just three years old. He has been acclaimed over the years as having one of the most outstanding voices in Trinidad & Tobago.

The veteran broadcaster and cultural aficionado is fondly remembered for his program “Bring Your Music and Come” with the late Rocky Mc Collin.
