Simple Song Steel Orchestra delivered an electrifying performance of "Band from Space" that left the audience in awe. The song, originally sung by Calypsonian Crazy with lyrics penned by him and music composed by Amrit Samaroo for the steelpan, was masterfully arranged by Kendell Brown.
Drill master Adilize Baptiste ensured that every player was in synchrony, making the sound of Simple Song anything but simple tonight. The arrangement was impeccable, and the drill master's efforts were evident in the flawless execution. The players' excitement was palpable as they danced and played with infectious joy, their faces beaming with delight. It was truly a joy to both watch and listen to them.
Playing like champions, they delivered a big band sound that resonated through the audience. The people of Pinto Road, Arima, have every reason to be immensely proud of this band. We expect great things from them and wish them the best of luck in this competition. Bravo, Simple Song Steel Orchestra!
