Welcome to North Coast Conversations on KHSU. I’m Stephanie McGeary.
One of Humboldt’s most beloved university groups, the Cal Poly Humboldt Calypso Band is celebrating its 40th anniversary and, naturally the party will be in the form of a big concert this weekend. So for this week's episode, we sat down with the band's founder and director Eugene Novotney to learn more about the group, the history of the instrument and music, and what we can expect from the upcoming program.
The show, Masters of the Steel Drum, is this Saturday, May 2 at 8 p.m. at the John Van Duzer Theater. You can find more info and tickets at buytickets.humboldt.edu. For North Coast Conversations and KHSU, I’m Stephanie McGeary. Thanks for listening.
