The origins of ‘Three’
It’s all about our steel band history. In the ‘50s, newly arrived Trinidadian musicians Russ Henderson, Sterling Betancourt and the Cherrie brothers, Max and Ralph first introduced the steel drum to the British. Remakably they did it mostly in a trio format that would have been unfamiliar even in their homeland. Fifty years on and the genre is still going strong in the UK with Solid Steel being its vanguard. We felt compelled to make this homage!
