Island Magic Steelband
author: Mary Thirtyacre
I was on the Zuiderdam in Nov and had the honor of hearing this group play. Up until I heard their magical music, I never cared to listen to a lot of steel drum Calypso styled music. These musicians were pure magic!! I too heard them twice and also went to their coffee chat on the ship. I would highly recommend their music to anyone whether you want to relax or be energized. Their rendition of "Ave Maria" brought tears to my eyes when I first heard it on one of the 2 CDs I have purchased from them.

Great, Talented, Inspiring Group
author: Jean Husk
My husband and I first heard of Island Magic Steel Band on our cruise to Panama on Holland America in Feb. 2010. They were so wonderful and inspiring that we went to both concerts at 8 pm and 10 pm on the same night on the ship. We also bought a cd and I am ordering two more for gifts. These guys recieved two standing ovations during the concert and the ship also added another concert at 3 pm in the afternoon on one of the days. We love them, they really love what they do. Thanks Island Magic !!!!
