THE FIRST STEELPAN PODCAST INTRO

"Swing Swing Blues" is an original composition written by Sean Thomas and played on double seconds steel pans. It serves as the first steelpan podcast intro on the Ocala Arts & Entertainment Podcast, which was founded and is hosted by Sean Thomas himself. The recording also features the talented bassist Brandi Disterheft and Lawrence Leathers on drums. With its unique sound, the composition showcases Sean's exceptional skills and creativity as a steelpan musician. This intro adds a touch of Caribbean flavor to the Ocala Arts & Entertainment Podcast, making it an exciting and diverse platform. Click on the link below to Swing!
