SteelDrumMusicDFW - If your solo act or band needs authentic Caribbean steel drums and/or bass guitar accompaniment, live shows or studio recording, check out Charlie Duhon, the most popular Steel Drum musician (also known as a Pannist) based in the North Texas area. Charlie has been performing and recording on the Double Tenor Steel Pans for over 10 years with an average of over 100 live performances a year. With two CDs released and an impressive and ever growing client list, he is the featured entertainment for hotels, resorts, restaurants, water parks and more. Charlie brings a cruise ship style of atmosphere to any event with that vacation music feeling of calypso, reggae, soca and popular songs. A lot of people say... "It's just like vacation music!" whether it's a loud festive pool party with high energy tropical music or some laid back reggae and a Jimmy Buffett style. Charlies' cruise ship style of music is sure to please. Or perhaps a quiet intimate dinner party with soft tropical background music, sounds nice, doesn't it? Well, it's like all that and more... Charlie is also an ambassador of the Steel Pan instrument and is dedicated to sharing the history, culture and information about these rare and beautiful sounding instruments. At almost every performance, Charlie usually invites the audience to come up and see, learn and play on his steel drums! It's a hit at every party!
