Want some unique fun? Hear the
steel drum pans
in this fun band. Calysto Steel Band. One of Calgarys most unusual entertainment outfits is the Calysto Steelband. Here you will find a supersize combo of musicians performing on the traditional steel drums of the Caribbean Sea and its island nations.
This outfit performs mostly at privately arranged engagements. Sometimes we play public venues such as neighbourhood pubs around the city of Calgary. See schedule and maps below. It's worthwhile.
Calysto Steelband has travelled to Barbados on several occasions to play in local venues. Places such as the Holetown musical festival and Barbados beach front restaurants.
The bands that play steel drum pans form a great part of Barbados nightlife. I have personally been overwhelmed by the quality of the entertainment in this part of the world.
Have a look at some steel
drum pictures.
The band has great fun playing reggae music, well known and
ethnic
tunes. Come join the fun led by this fun soca, latin, rock n roll and calypso steel band. You can also enjoy some Bossa Nova and other tropical styles.
If you get a chance to see this band live, you will not be disappointed in the quality of the performance. They occasionally play public performances, so come and see them when it does happen.
