The NSU Steel PanDEMONium Band will perform on the Natchitoches downtown riverfront stage on Saturday, March 9 at 11am. The concert will coincide with Bloomin’ on the Bricks. The steel band is directed by Dr. Oliver Molina and is comprised of instruments from the island nation of Trinidad and Tobago. Molina said the unique timbre and infectious dance beats make it a fun and exciting concert. The program will include some island classics such as “Limbo” and “Jump in the Line” as well as some current hits like “Cruel Summer” by Taylor Swift. Molina encourages  audience members to stick around after the performance and try out the steel pans.
