Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - Three steel pan musicians have helped a small-town steel orchestra in Trinidad defy the odds and take second place in the 2016 Panorama Competitions on Saturday night.
MJ Byron, Omandy Byron and Kazrano Gumbs played with Supernovas, and narrowly missed the top spot by one point. The band also won the People’s Choice Award.
According to Gumbs the three of them have been participating in Antigua’s Panorama since 2008 with Mahico stars and the Gemonites Steel Orchestra.
Last year some musicians from Supernovas played with Gemonites for Panorama and were so impressed with the three young men that invited them to play with them in Trinidad.
