Origins
In 2005, the band sought to pay homage to the various groups and people who would have originally built our nation. This year, the band highlighted the British, the Arawaks and the African Slaves who would have all contributed to the growth of our island Barbados. This was a wonderful year for the band as we won many prizes including the King of the Bands as our band leader Trevor Chase portrayed Shango, the African King. This costume represents the African section which was the most popular section of the band that year. It highlights the beauty of the African people through whose blood, sweat and tears our nation became what it is today.
