Walk-thru to Sparrow's Hideaway | Former home and calypso tent of the late Mighty Sparrow in Diego Martin Trinidad
We morn the loss of Dr Slinger Francisco better known as The Mighty Sparrow who passed on September 27th 2026. Thanks for the memories and the creative music. May he rest in peace.
The Mighty Sparrow was known as the “Calypso King of the World,” famous for his witty, socially and politically charged calypso songs such as “Jean and Dinah,” “Sa Sa Yé,” “Congo Man,” and “Drunk and Disorderly.”
Mighty Sparrow, born Slinger Francisco in 1935, is a renowned Trinidadian calypso singer and songwriter. In the 1980s, he established 'Sparrow's Hideaway' in Diego Martin, Trinidad, as an entertainment venue that combined a calypso tent with a nightclub, offering performances and dancing. This venue played a significant role in the local music scene, providing a platform for calypsonians and contributing to the cultural vibrancy of the area.
