Much more than a mere novelty act, Soca Jukebox has established
themselves as one of the region’s premier show bands. As the only
professional Steel Drum Band in the Midwest, they are a highly
sought-after organization of talented players, steeped in percussion
performance.
Each member of the Soca Jukebox is a Multi-instrumentalist with
percussion, vocal and string backgrounds. Clay Johnston (Lead Vocal,
Double Seconds), Jay Albright (Lead Pan), Ben Leimkuhler (Bass), Mark
Elting (Drum Set) and Jason Riley (Guitar) make up this one-of-a-kind
quintet.
Taking their name from a popular Caribbean music style, the group
performs traditional island music as well as more familiar Classic Rock
hits. They give every song a unique Latin and Reggae twist, the very
element that endears them to audiences.
Soca Jukebox is the perfect group to create that "Island Atmosphere".
Their presentation is high-energy and truly entertaining. Kick-back,
feel the rhythm and say, "Yah, Mon" to this extraordinary ensemble.
