Mr. Myers

Mr. Myers blends the sounds of calypso and ska, the rhythms of reggae and a touch of rock and roll with some favorite tunes to create their own special style of music- Caribbean Rock. Mr. Myers began producing its unique blend of music in 1981 and has since become a favorite dance band in clubs, at Summer Festivals, on college campuses as well as corporate and private parties throughout the Midwest. The magic of Mr. Myers’ trademark sound stems from Bandleader Todd Donnelly’s use of authentic steel drums or steel pans, which Mr Myers was one of the first Midwestern Bands to make use of. Mr. Myers also pulls its sound from its highly talented and diversely educated members, all having strong backgrounds in Jazz, Classical, Rock and World music. Featuring wailing sax, searing rock guitar, colorful steel drums, powerful percussion and strong vocals, Mr. Myers succeeds at playing its blend of Caribbean Rock to enthusiastic mainstream audiences everywhere. The Band has received a tropically warm reception at a variety of events, including Park Districts, festivals, corporate functions and colleges, as well as clubs and private parties throughout the Midwest.
