About / Biography

Silvertone Steel Band is a very versatile and contemporary steel pan ensemble, consisting of four Caribbean musicians, and featuring some of the top pan musicians in the U.K. They are an established group having performed at over 100 weddings, Caribbean-theme parties, corporate functions and private parties.

Silvertone Steel Band has a history that goes back to the 1950’s in the UK, having also taken part in every Notting Hill carnival to date. The band has a proven track record for reliability, punctuality and quality of music. We are a favorite at village festivals, local carnivals, and Caribbean and Hawaii festive evenings. Audiences are always impressed by our energetic rendition of popular melodies combined with traditional Caribbean rhythms.

Alhough we are a London-based band, we travel everywhere in the United Kingdom and Europe. We have a wide repertoire and an interesting vocal range. We are adaptable for just background music at functions where the guest mingles, or to provide dancing music for an audience.

Silvertone perform in many lineups to suit every event, from the basic duo format right up to six or even seven-piece band for a bigger Calypso sound, for both outdoor and indoor events.

Please send an enquiry to discuss which lineup would be best for you.
