Play the Steel Drums Online!

The steel drums are a much loved part of our school. We currently have two after school steel band clubs. In the club, the children learn how to play the drums and play tunes together. They often practise during their playtimes and lunchtimes. We have found some digital steel drums that you can play on the Internet. Click on to find the links and have a go…These online drums allow you get a feel for the layout of the different drums and how it sounds.
They don’t quite feel the same as playing the real thing. We play with two sticks and the mouse only acts as one. Two sticks allow you to do a roll. They are still lots of fun and our steel band players can practise their songs at home using these! We hope you enjoy playing these digital drums. Maybe they will inspire you to come and have a go on the real thing and perhaps even join one of our bands!
