In a steel band the percussion section is very important, it is known as the engine room of the band, our percussion section exists of 5 people each playing a different percussion instrument.
The 5 different instruments are
Cow Bell,
Iron (Brake Drum),
Scratcher,
Congas,
Tambourine.
It is important for the band that the percussion section is in
time, so that the band has got a beat to check with.
The whole of our percussion section has only been together since December 98' and are working hard and progressing very fast !!!
