Towards a viable steelband model
Neal & Massy All Stars - Vidya Thurab
THE EDITOR: Many steelbands don t have security of tenure, much less a home for themselves. The patronage steelband model is based on inflows of funding from the private sector through sponsorship, or from the public sector through grants and the proceeds of competitions.
A third model that is emerging more strongly is a sustainable model that facilitates the development of autonomous income streams from business ventures. For this later model, security of tenure opens up a capital base from which steelbands can build. All Stars and Birdsong are examples of steelbands that are actively exploring this third option.
