An innovative steelband and a unique community
We’re upgrading our website. Things may look a bit odd at the moment, but everything should be working fine by Sunday 20 November. If you can’t find anything you need – such as band booking or steelpan lesson details – phone us and we’ll get straight back to you: 07774 216746, or email info@metronomes.org.uk.
Notting Hill Carnival roundup
Metronomes came second at Panorama, the UK National Steelband Competition performing So Long by Nadia Baston, arranged by Leroy Clarke. The competition was won by Mangrove, with Ebony coming third.
More than 100 players from Metronomes took part in Panorama, and we had 25 plus players on the road for both Carnival Monday and Sunday. Thousand of people from the Metronomes community in North Kensington came along to cheer us on. It was a great Carnival!

Listen to our music!
This is Carnival Tabanca, our 2014 Panorama tune. We’re testing putting music on the site over the next few weeks. For now, we’ve put a track on each page, and the five tunes we are using can be found on Soundcloud account.
Our three-year development plan
We have published All our futures, our three-year plan to increase our community and arts projects.
