Daniel Barwick

 

Teacher, player, musician

Dan has been a member of the band for over 15 years, originally as a pan player, but now as our new Band Leader. Throughout this time, he has participated in and performed at countless events, including carnivals, weddings, 1000 Pans, Trafalgar Square, the NBPA Gala, and even joined Ebony Steelband for Panorama, among many other experiences. With his wealth of pan experience, Dan is now passing on his passion and knowledge to the next generation.

In addition of Harlow Steelband, he teaches steelpans at local schools and has established himself as a talented musician in his own right, even featuring steel pans in his new songs!
