Volcano Island Band featuring Sean M.Steel Drum Band from Phoenix, AZ

Sean and his band, Volcano, create a lively, fun, party atmosphere by playing live island/beach/reggae/pop/steel drum music.

They don't just play traditional and standard island/steel drum songs such as "Jamaica Farewell", the "Banana Boat Song", the "Hawaiian Wedding Song", "Under the Sea", "Kokomo", "Red Red Wine", and "Margaritaville" like most steel drum bands do. They can also play classic rock and beach songs such as "Brown Eyed Girl", "Another Saturday Night", "Obladi Oblada", "Me and Julio", "Stir it Up", "Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay", "Hotel California", "Black Magic Woman", and "Summer in the City". Sean and his band can even play contemporary pop songs such as "Best Day of My Life", "Rude", "I'm Yours", "Sorry" by Justin Bieber, "Attention" by Charlie Puth, "Get Lucky" by Daft Punk, "Happy" by Pharrell Williams, and "One More Night" by Maroon 5. During the holiday season, Sean and his band can also play songs like "Jingle Bells", "Deck the Halls", "Feliz Navidad", "Here Comes Santa Claus", "Let it Snow", "Christmas Island", and "Mele Kalikimaka".

Sean and his band have also performed numerous times at every major resort in the Phoenix area including the Scottsdale Princess, The Boulders Resort, The Valley Ho, Arizona Biltmore, The Camelback Inn, The Phoenician, the Arizona Grand Resort, and the J.W. Marriott at Desert Ridge. Sean and his band have performed at events with attendance as small as ten people or as large as one thousand people.

Or, for more energy and variety, there is the option of adding additional live instruments such as the tenor pan steel drum, double second steel drums, triple-cello steel drums, guitar, congas, keyboard, marimba, vibes, a horn section, or drum set by adding one or more members of Sean's band "Volcano".
