Palancing

Everyone knows steelpan music is associated with soca, and though UWI Panoridim has a wide range of genres, we really do love to play our own mix of hit soca tunes. At a recent event where the band was jamming hard for an exclusive crowd, a band member made the observation that Palance is the ultimate soca song for steelbands. Why? Well the song itself has the right mix of everything you want in a soca song: a hype beat, a catchy tune, and the requisite instruction of a dance move that soca songs are known for.
