The Mark Cherrie Quartet are the UK’s only steel pan led jazz quartet. Their debut album, 'Joining The Dots', was released on Trio Records last year to critical acclaim. In fact, it was awarded 4 stars in the Guardian and in fact made Dave Gelly’s top ten list of jazz albums. The music is a mixture of jazz classics by the likes of Herbie Hancock & Wayne Shorter, to more modern fare by Pat Metheny, as well as some originals too. They band undertook a UK tour last year sponsored by the Arts Council, wowing audiences with their fresh, exciting sound.

Pan Alive: Indulge in the sweet sounds of the steel pan at the Pan Alive steel pan competition. Did you know that the steel pan is the only acoustic instrument invented in the 20th century? Trinidad is its original home, but the instrument can be found all across the Caribbean and almost anywhere Caribbean people live. Pan Alive brings together the best steel pan bands, all going for the title of Best Band.

The Toronto Caribbean Carnival Festival and The Ontario Steel Band association present Pan Alive, Canada's premiere Steel Pan competition happening during Carnival weekend. On August 2nd, some of North America's best Steel Pan orchestras will compete for the title of Best Steel Band.

Throughout the night the audience will be treated to some of the best live Caribbean flavoured percussion and steel drumming. The panel of judges will judge performance on arrangement, group performance, the tone and general application of rhythm. Of course, the audience will base our favourites on how hard we are pushed to dance.

The region staged a steelband coup in pulling in the topnotch band, Supernovas. The band is reputed as having one of the most vibrant stage sides which was evidenced at the recently-concluded North-East Pan Spektakula in Arima.

Supernovas along with Melodians, Fascinators Pan Symphony, Augmented Groove and host band Sangre Grande Cordettes will form the playbill. Additional entertainment will be presented by the Arima Hit Squad Rhythm Section.

Its purpose here in the UK is to recognise the excellent work of the schools and their Steelbands, without the Classoramacompetition, the talents of these youngsters would otherwise go unnoticed.  

Classoramais now in its 6thsuccessful year and the competition in 2019 hopes to emulate that of previous years. This year the competition will host a Blockoramaelement where bands can perform their repertoire between 13:30 – 15.30. This gives the audience and other bands the opportunity to share the excellence of the schools aside from the competition. 

Winners in the past include; Roundwood Primary School (2014/16), Kingsdale Foundation Secondary School (2014/15/17/18), Manorfield Primary School (2018), Harris Primary Academy School (2017), Sir John Cass’s & Red Coat CofE Secondary School (2016).

Friends,
Just a reminder that the next KAISO LIME will be on Saturday 6th July 2019.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, De Admiral will be unable to perform at this Kaiso Lime and has extended his apologies.

The line up of artistes will therefore feature De Alberto and the return of Tobago Crusoe.

Pan Fever (Justin "Redz" Richardson) will also feature with the great performances we have come to enjoy.

And for your dancing and wining pleasure, Kaiso and Soca classics will be played by Soca Massive and DJ Fats during the interval and when the show finishes.

DON'T MISS THE SHOW!!! Live KAISO performances.

Come early! Get a seat! Order Caribbean food and drinks at the bar.
