We have various combinations of instrumentations available: for example, you can hire a steelpan soloist, a duo of steelpan and keyboards, or a trio of steelpan, keyboards and bass, or a quartet of steelpan, keyboards, bass and drums, or a quintet of steelpan, keyboards, bass, guitar/vocals, drums. We play for weddings, receptions, private parties, corporate or civic events and concerts. All audio samples are original compositions and arrangements by Lennard Jack, Jr. Our motto is 'music with an accent'. Let Lennard Jack and Fusion be your band of choice.
