Bazodee, pronounced bah-zoh-dee, means a crazy state of confusion.
Pan Bazodee was formed during the summer of 2004 with the intention of sharing pan (steel drum) music with the community at large. All members were introduced to pan through the CSU Long Beach Steel Drum Orchestra and have been playing pan for 10-13 years. Some members have studied and performed with Ray Holman, Liam Teague and Ken "Professor" Philmore.
Pan Bazodee performance venues include hospitals, schools, churches, festivals, performing arts centers, private functions, corporate events, and city functions/events. Music on pan is infectious, which is the main reason we love and play the music!
Aloha and mahalo Pan Bazodee! Life is way too short and stressful, so remember to take time to completely chill out, relax, spend time with your ohana (family) and ride da music...island style!
