Global - When Steel Talks extends our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Joey Horsford of New York Marsicans, Silhouettes and Pan Rebels steel orchestras. He was an awesome bass player and an even greater person. His leadership, organizational skills and know-how are irreplaceable.
Joey, with Albert “Bing” Reid, are co-founders of New York Marsicans. He was also an integral member of Southern Marines Steelband Foundation Steel Orchestra in Trinidad.
