Mango Groove experience, a new world of rhythm, melody and movement. Mango Groove plays a variety of dance music -Calypso, Reggae. Jazz, Motown and more all with a Caribbean flavor that only the uplifting rhythmic sounds of a steel band can create. Performances also include Afro-Caribbean drumming inviting the audiences to learn the dances, do the limbo, or just "jump up" and join the fun.
