Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - Days after Trinidad Cement Limited (TCL) dropped its sponsorship of Skiffle Bunch, the steelband has a new sponsor. The band, which is confident of winning the 2012 National Panorama title, will now be known as Junior Sammy Group Skiffle. An interim three-month agreement was signed between the group’s executive chairman, Junior E Sammy, and the band’s CEO, Junia Regrello, at the pan theatre on Thursday night. Sammy said his group came to the rescue of the top steelband after its long-standing sponsor, TCL, indicated its inability to continue with its sponsorship for this year’s Panorama competition.
