Atmospheric Events: CARIBBEAN STEEL BANDS & SPANISH BANDS

I can supply both Spanish & Caribbean bands. I also have Limbo & Flamenco Dancers.

(I have a band who has a steel pan player that plays with a Latin rhythm section - so a fusion of Caribbean and Latin flavours results - it very pleasing to listen to.)

I will just provide information on both types of bands then perhaps that will help with decision making - if you want to hire either please contact me.

SPANISH BAND

The Spanish band I use most offers dancers, guitarists, percussionists and vocalists.

It can operate as a trio and can be as large as a 9-piece.

They normally offer Spanish guitar inspired background music.

They also offer Spanish Flamenco dancing cabaret, with an audience participation session.

The guitar playing is very intricate and clever, the dancing passionate sometimes fiery, the singing; intense and heartfelt - its the real deal.

I can also offer a Gypsy Kings type trio.
I can also offer a Spanish male/female duo that play Spanish, Latin and Pop music - they offer a Spanish flavour rather than authentic Spanish traditional music. There is some dancing from the female vocalist.

CARIBBEAN BAND

Report from last corporate event follows:

The Caribbean Steel band had delegates dancing around tables first, then "full on", "going for it" on the dance floor at around 7.00 p.m.

The crowd did not want to stop dancing even when dinner was served.

They eventually did sit down to eat but not before "conga-ing" around the banqueting suite.

After dinner the Limbo Cabaret was the usual success with a very gifted young lady delegate winning the Limbo competition - to the supporting cheers of her departmental colleagues, other delegate's and hotel serving staff.

The band have been professionally working on the corporate circuit for around a decade.

They like to get people "going" and creating a carnival atmosphere.

Their success rate is 100%!

Musically, the band plays tunes using steel drums, keyboard, bass, guitar and percussion.

They cover styles including: calypso, soca, reggae, soul and pop.

The band has two lead male vocalists and the remaining members of the band supply backing vocals.

The band have worked for a string of Blue Chip PLC's as well as small and medium sized companies.

They are punctual, appropriately smartly dressed, accommodating and easy to work with.

Most of all they are effective at giving people a "good time".

Limbo dancing cabaret is available, at an additional charge, however, the band will provide backing music for the dancers and a lively master of ceremonies at no additional charge.
