We perform regularly at parties, festivals, corporate events and weddings across the UK, and internationally.​ Some of our notable performances include:​

​
In 2024, we formed a Youth Steel Orchestra. This was to enable young people who have had experience learning the steelpan to have the opportunity to further develop their musical ability, and build confidence through performance. Including our professional orchestra, we now have 4 groups rehearsing and performing regularly.
