Developed for the band by Herman Brathwaite, the new site provides information on the history and development of the band from its inception in 1948, to present time. You can also flip through the profiles of the arrangers or learn of past, present and up coming events. You will find information there too of the Renegades Youth Steel Orchestra, but best of all, you can listen to recordings of live performances of their Festival Band, Stage Side and the Youth Steel Orchestra. So why then are you still wasting time reading this blog when you can simply check out the website instead. Beats me.

As a true Trini son of the soil; he excelled in the musical field, and let…

It is now official, Duvone Stewart will take the BP Renegades Steel
Orchestra to the Savannah for Panorama 2K12. The popular Charlotte Street band

Hey Michael, Do you know whether the radio station plans to stream its programming so it can be played on sites and Apps such as "Tune In"? We can only listen to you on an internet based computer, not mobile devices on the move.
Thanks Michael,
