TRINIDADIO
Welcome to the world of Trinidadio...where good times, dancing and fun are always blowing in on the prevailing trade winds. The tiki torches are lit, there''s a fruity drink in your hand and the light and uplifting sound of steel drums is in the air. It is that unique sounding instrument which Trinidadio has threaded through all of their original material and lives.
If it takes a community to raise a child, Trinidadio was influenced early on by the many musical styles that can be found in the Los Angeles area. Maturing out of the L.A. rock and punk scenes, Fab Rodig and Jay Lawson unknowingly back-stepped into what would become a passion for Caribbean rhythms. Playing the steel drum not only provided them with a tool for positive expression but also with a greater purpose. The joy and happiness on their fan’s faces validated their musical journey. While exploring the tiny steel drum scene on the sunny Southern California coast (together and separately), Fab and Jay met the remaining original band-members, Tony Lee (guitar), Casey Jones (drums) and Davidson King (bass). All three are still known as first call musicians in the L.A. reggae scene and greatly contribute to the overall spiritual and musical vibe of Trinidadio.
Trinidadio combines musical styles like an experienced bartender mixing your favorite tropical well drink…One part reggae, two parts rock with a steel drum twist. Or for the more discerning pallet…mix in one glass, even parts of old school Marley with the blue-eyed reggae of The Police. In a separate glass combine calypso/soca grooves with the island sound of Harry Belafonte. Pour all ingredients into blender along with a jigger of Santana and a liberal splash of Jimmy Buffett. Blend on low or mellow speed. Voilá! “Tropical Rock.” Serve cold on a hot day or hot on a cold day. Don’t forget the umbrella!
Spreading ‘positivity,’ understanding and tolerance in a fun, uplifting way is the wave Trinidadio rides. Even though a song may have a dark theme, the steel drums are a source of light. Light and love prevail on the trade winds that blow through every Trinidadio song and show.
Fun, sun, sand, surf and positive vibes…that is Trinidadio…
