Free patio music with island rhythms at Pilot Brewing, featuring a steel pan performance.
Patio Beats: Island Rhythms comes to Pilot Brewing on Friday, October 9, with a solo steel pan performance that brings Caribbean-inspired music and rhythms to the patio. It's part of the brewery's Patio Beats series, so you'll find the music outside rather than tucked away in the taproom.
The set is built around the steel pan, a melodic percussion instrument that carries the whole performance. The music draws on Caribbean rhythms, so you can expect the kind of bright, rhythmic sound that the steel pan is known for. It's a solo act, meaning one player handles the melodies and the beat on their own.
If you're not familiar with the spot, Pilot Brewing is a nano-brewery at 1331 Central Avenue in Plaza Midwood that specializes in small-batch, experimental brewing. The taproom runs a steady rotation of recurring events and free food days—Pilot Game Days on select Sundays, monthly Speed Puzzles, and Free Elote Day and Free Egg Roll Day. This fits right into that mix.
