Enjoy the sounds of summer with Steel Power. We play authentic soca and calypso music. Our band consists of vocals, steel pan, bass guitar, drumset and percussion. From the luau to the poolside summer vibe, Steel Power brings the sounds of the islands to you with an intense beat that will get your guests on the dance floor.
Steel Power was punctual, communicative, and amazing in their performance. I originally asked for a 15-20-minute performance, but they ended up giving us a 45-minute one instead! They are amazing people with such a fun energy. I will definitely book them again!
