Alston Jack,
a native from the isle
of Tobago, has been
passionate about the
steeldrum since he was
9 years old, when he
became a member of the
Tobago All Stars Steel
Orchestra. The steeldrum
was an almost immediate
attraction for him.
It was not long before
he, like so many before
him, began experimenting
with the instrument.
Seeking a greater challenge,
the double second panist
became a member of Renegades
Steel Orchestra in 1967,
but remained with the
band for only one season
and then found himself
being drawn to the famous
Laventille hills’ cross-town
rivals, Desperadoes.
There he met pan patriot
Rudolph Charles, who
became a mentor to Alston
because he understood
the instrument, the
culture. “He brought
passion to the movement,”
Jack says.
As a member of Desperadoes
Steel Orchestra, Alston
Jack was able to tour
many places with them
including New York city
where he stayed and
made his second home.
In New York he studied
piano and voice theory
at the Brooklyn Conservatory
of Music and Theory
and the Third Street
Music School Settlement.
Jack’s pan compositions
have been featured on
the soundtracks of
Fatal Attraction, Working
Girl and NBC’s
daytime soap opera
Another World.
He has also appeared
on the
Cosby Show and
Another World.
He has arranged for
bands in New York such
as Harlem All Stars,
Moods Pan Groove, Metro,
Women in Steel, Tropicans
and Pantonic.
