ECLIPSE INTERNATIONAL BAND BIOGRAFIA

Our band is made up of a cross section of cultures with talents ranging from the Caribbean shores of Trinidad & Tobago and Jamaica, to the mother land of Africa. We have infused our musical vibes to create the original sound, we call Eclipse International.

Our band is made up of five members who currently reside in the DC metro area and we are eager to jam and rock any session. In January 2010, our three founding members Michael, Orin and Frankie decided to join together and form a band with members who shared a common love for music, strong work ethic and a desire to provide an exceptional musical experience while continually building a wide and extensive repertoire of music. The members of Eclipse International enjoy jamming to conscious roots reggae, lovers rock, dancehall, upbeat soca, steeldrums and the tantalizing rhythms of African zouk. We play a wide selection of original music, hit cover songs as well as remixes of popular pop, rock and R&B hits, with an island twist.

Our lead singer Orin, spent many years working as an entertainer on cruise ships and in hotels and has mastered the art of entertaining and seducing his audience with his unique voice while skillfully playing the piano. He is backed by his close friends, Mike on the drums and Frank on the keyboards.
