1. Calysto Steelband - The tropical extravaganza of the north. They added a touch of class and an element of warmth to life.
They never played many bars, but if you did get a chance, you would have remembered this band.
It featured almost 20 players performing sultry steel drums at once. It filled the room. Quite literally. But the band did leave some space to dance. Calysto is RETIRED, but watch for a new steelband in Calysto's place.
2. Back in the Day - Rock 'n' Roll as you remember it. Rolling Stones, The Guess Who, Bad Company and the Beatles.
Does it get any better? Oh, yeah... Add a little country too...maybe even some alternative musics from the 90's. Come hear famous songs from up to 40 different renowned groups of your life. Now playing at live music venues in Calgary.
