Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band

Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band is a mysterious ensemble known for their instrumental interpretations and deep-cut cover versions primarily using steel pans. The band, shrouded in a degree of mystery, draws its influences from the rich and resonant traditions of Caribbean steel drum music. Despite their elusive nature, the group's work is instantly recognizable by their signature crisp, tight groove underpinned by a funky backbone, which is at once both classic and refreshingly modern.

Often covering a wide array of music genres, Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band has developed a cult-like following among aficionados of funk, soul, hip-hop, and dance music. Their arsenal of tunes includes a diverse range of reinterpretations, from reworkings of 50 Cent's "P.I.M.P." to the iconic "Jungle Fever" by Chakachas, and from innovative adaptations of popular themes, such as the "Halloween Theme" and "Stranger Things Theme", to cleverly reimagined hits like "Hotline Bling" by Drake. The band's ingenuity lies in their ability to transform familiar tracks into something new and vibrant, all the while, showcasing the versatility and unique sound of steel pan music.
