Steel Drums are an instrument invented in Trinidad and Tobago, where they are called steelpans. Initially used for calypso and world music, all styles of music can be played on the instruments, including jazz, classical, pop, etc.

The drums were initially made from old oil drums, and are of different lengths and contain notes on concave surfaces. When the notes are struck with a mallet different musical tones are produced.
