In
order to
fulfill a
demand for
traditional
Island music,
the steel band
combo Island
Ed's Steel
Drum Band was
born. The
combo,
composed of
four graduates
from Miami
University,
specialize in
authentic
Island music
rooted in
traditional
Trinidadian,
Latin
American, and
Brazilian
styles.
Additionally,
transcriptions
of
contemporary
pop music from
the United
States round
out their
repertoire.
Reflecting the
philosophy of
the Islands,
their steel
pan music,
ranges from
laid back and
relaxed to a
hot limbo
contest.
Ensemble
instrumentation
includes: one
lead pan, a
set of double
tenor pans, a
bass guitar,
and a drum
set. With over
25 years of
combined steel
drum band
experience,
their unique
Caribbean
music has
entertained
crowds ranging
from private
parties to
wedding
receptions to
corporate
events. Island
Ed & His
Fiery Limbo
Revue will
provide an
energetic,
infectious
show, heating
up any event
and scorching
it into the
memory of a
good time for
all that
witness the
performance.
