Aloha!
I am putting together a Calypso band here on Maui! So far we are Guitar/Vocals(myself), Drumset, Tenor Sax. Still need a Bassist, but no luck so far on that one. I want to keep the core group around 4-5 players, but will be looking to go all the way up to 9-12 eventually for special occasions!
I recently finished writing The Calypso Fake Book - Volume 1(publication pending), a collection of 83 lead sheets covering popular Calypso songs from between the 30s and the early 80s that I transcribed from the original recordings. I can arrange for horns et. al. and can provide you will all the sheet music you will need, digitally and physically. Let's do some cool horn harmonies on happy afro-island rhythms!
Don't worry, it won't be ALL calypso music (it's a little niche, but oh so much fun). We are talking about including some jazz and some better known tunes for versatility.
If you are interested, please respond with your email address and we can chat about the project!
Best,
Logan
