Pan-A-Cea Steel Drum and Calypso Band is made up of a collection of world-class musicians predominantly originating from the
Caribbean islands. We offer a variety of options to accommodate the needs of our clients, such as variety in size of the band
as well as band configuration.

Some of the options include 1) a steel drum band (instrumental), 2) steel drum band with vocals,  3) calypso, soca,
reggae band (featuring the steel drums - with vocalist(s), guitar, bass, drums, percussion, horn section, etc.) + more.
Our soloist and our duo work with sequenced, top-quality, pre-programmed accompaniment tracks giving the live
steel drums a full and classy sound at an affordable price. This option requires only a small space which makes
 this very desirable format for restaurants, in-home parties, etc. With a minimal amount of equipment this set-up is
quick and clean. Also, volume is much more controllable than larger bands but we are still able to fill a larger room
 with sound, if necessary. Our trio gives a bit more punch and flexibility, still allowing for good volume/space control
and offers a moderate price. The four and five-piece band (up to 22-piece band) offers all of the punch and
power of a very energetic live Caribbean band.  We're sure to get you up and dancing!!!

Our repertoire offers both variety and flexibility. We play calypso, soca and reggae, the music styles most commonly
associated with steel drums. We also play latin, pop, bosanova, calypso jazz giving us the range to accommodate
everything from background music, poolside parties, cocktail receptions, dinners as well as energetic party and
dance music. For a partial song list press
HERE and for sound samples/short videos, press HERE.

The band is made up of members originally from Belize, Trinidad, Virgin Islands, Bahamas, Jamaica,
Barbados and America. Authenticity and quality are never compromised regardless of the size of band we bring.

We also provide a backing-service for Caribbean as well as contemporary artists under the direction of our
Musical Director, JR Crawford. This service is available nationally as well as internationally and we
can provide any size band needed. Past clients we have provided backing for are: "Lord Rhaburn" from Belize,
"Crazy" from Trinidad, "Dobby Dobson" from Jamaica, "The Mighty Sparrow" from Trinidad, "Tigress" from
Trinidad, "Exposer" from Trinidad, "Freddie McGreggor" and "Franky Paul" from Jamaica,
and a host of others (see JR's bio for more information).
