Strings & Steel

• Rick Henson - Steel Pans, Percussion

Strings & Steel is perfect for your next island, caribbean or tropical event. We can play with 2-5 members to ensure we stay within your budget. With years of experience we can provide the perfect music no matter the occasion!

Specializing in styles such as Calypso, Bossa Nova, and popular crowdpleasing
tunes, the rhythmic strumming patterns accompany the beautiful steel pan melodies, creating music which sets a festive, entertaining and relaxing mood for your important event. Strings & Steel can add more musicians for those looking for a bigger sound.

Strings & Steel was featured in the latest issue of Brides Colorado! "The background music needs to put everyone into party mode, but also remain somewhat low-key so that guests can mingle and socialize without having to shout... Book: Strings & Steel."

• Our entire experience with Rick Henson and Strings and Steel was fantastic. Rick was extremely easy to coordinate with leading up to the event. They were very prompt in showing up, setting up and provided excellent entertainment throughout the evening. We would not hesitate in recommending them to anyone. I had a huge amount of positive comments and compliments throughout the evening -- Jill K, Evergreen, CO, 4/27/2012
• Rick was amazing, I would email him and he would respond immediately. I would call him and he would respond so quick. He was so mellow and cool too. I would ask for a song and he would rehearse it and get back to me as soon as possible to let me know if he could play it. He was great, I would recommend him in a second. Thanks again Rick. Take care, Brittany and Scott -- Brittany K, Boulder, CO, 5/28/2011
