THE ISLANDERS - IRIE STEEL DRUMMINÂ’
Ready for your Caribbean vacation? Mitch and da boys have just what you need for an "attitude adjustment."
The Islanders can present a one, two, or three person steel drum show featuring all types of music. The songs of the Sade, Shaggy, Nora Jones, Jimmy Buffett, and Bob Marley (of course) are all soothed to an island beat by way of their native Trinidad (where the steel drum was invented!).
In fact, lead drum (and singer) Mitch was a member of the world renowned steel drum band, Desperados. The Islanders can be heard on the soundtrack of the movie, Cocktail with the Beach Boys . . . and on BuffettÂ’s remake of the classic song, "Another Saturday Night." They love to share the culture and traditions of their paradise home and this most unique music. Culturally educational, musically entertaining, flexible, and easy to work with, The Islanders are perfect for your fairs, festivals, diversity programs, themed dinners, or any event where you want to add a little "Island-er" flavor.
