Small, family-run entertainment company Steelasophical fronted by Gary Trotman is a full-time, professional Caribbean-inspired steel drum band. Its area of service in the UK covers Buckinghamshire, Essex, London, Guernsey, Jersey, Isle of Wight, Wales and Northern Ireland. Entertainment services provided include Steel Band, Caribbean mobile DJ, MC, jukebox and vocals, including managing bookings for vocalist Evrod Cottoy. The band has made TV appearances, its music has been featured in James Bond 007 film Casino Royale and its albums sell world-wide.
A new service it has recently introduced is do-it-yourself lighting and PA hire, compatible with iPads and laptops. The speakers are lightweight and portable and there are two sound-to-light effects. Clients simply plug it into their own equipment and they're ready to play their own music mix, compatible with iPod, MP3 player, iPhone, laptop or CD player. Steelasophical expects that this will be a popular alternative to hiring a live DJ where customers are on a limited budget.
Steelasophical is popular not just for its professional sound and Caribbean expertise, it also performs in many other genres, such as pop, reggae, Latin, Motown, blues, jazz, modern, 'middle of the road' and some classical. Versatility makes the steel band and its services sought after for weddings; BBQs; public, private and corporate events; marketing, exhibition, carnival and launch events; special occasions; workshops and demonstrations; and recording, TV and film. The band can be booked as far as three years in advance, particularly with weddings and special events that require thorough planning.
Another party service offered by Steelasophical if clients require it is Limbo by Design, a professional limbo dancing kit. Conga lines and limbo games are easily incorporated into the music already playing, increasing guest interaction and participation, ensuring a fun time without disruption to the event. There is also an online store featuring photography artworks by Gary himself and Learn Salsa DVDs by Robert Charlemagne, one of the UK's most accomplished salsa instructors.
