Last night, the Nutrien Silver Stars Steel Orchestra played their hearts out for their adoring fans. The band played Olatunji's "Inventor" for the preliminary judging of the large steel bands for Panorama 2024.
Considered underdogs in this category, they are focused on victory with their rendition of Inventor by Olatunji, a song that celebrates the creativity and innovation of the pan. The song was written by Olatunji Yearwood and Jason “Shaft” Bishop and produced by De Red Boyz, a Barbadian production team (a Trini and a Bajan) that has worked with many Soca stars.
Inventor is a catchy and upbeat tune that showcases Olatunji’s vocal skills and lyrical prowess. Nutrien Silver Stars’ arrangement of Inventor was done by Ojay Richards and Kersh Ramsey, two young and talented musicians who have been working with the band since 2019. The band delivered a stellar performance for the preliminary judging of the Large Steelbands 2024, held at their panyard on Tragarete Road, Port of Spain. They played with precision, energy, and enthusiasm, impressing the judges and the audience alike.
We wish Nutrien Silver Stars all the best in their quest for the Panorama title, and we look forward to hearing more from them in the future.
