PATTERN STORIES
Written by: Ed Domain
The New Mexico State Fair is off to a great start! As I made my way through the Purple Gate to enter the Fair, I was greeted by the sound of steel drums being played by two of the members of Salsa Steel, a steel drum band out of Silver City, New Mexico.
The band has four members, but they split into teams of two to cover different areas of the fair. Bill and Stephanie were at the Purple Gate.

The acoustics of steel drums have been studied and prove to physically improve health, energy and mood. The more drummers, the bigger the impact of this amazing instrument!

Everyone loves the positive uplifting sound of the steel drums! If it's fun, we will play it! Acoustic Duo
Goode Company - My Johnny
An older popular British Isles tune first published around 1800 but likely older, performed here by Renaissance Minstrels of Goode Company, Abby Green Soprano and Irish Bouzouki, Bill Harris marimba, Bobby Triviso Tabour drum, and music director Stephanie Gudeman on alto vocals. We had too much fun playing this old tune, as we often do! We hope this makes you smile.

The instrumental group plays music from the 14th-16th centuries on authentic historic reproductions of 15th-16th century instruments.
