Disney: A Steel Pan Soundtrack Legacy

​

London All Stars had the honour of being commissioned by Disney to bring the distinctive sound of the steel pan to the big screen. Our steel orchestra composed two key sequences — Kiss the Girl and Marketplace — for the Little Mermaid soundtrack.

 

We worked alongside legendary composer Alan Menken, renowned for The Little Mermaid and The Lion King, and are proudly credited on the official Disney album as London All Stars Steel Orchestra.

 

Our involvement didn’t stop at the music. We were also invited to perform live at the London World Premiere of The Little Mermaid, entertaining high-profile guests on the “blue carpet” and showcasing Caribbean music on a global stage.

Marks & Spencer Brixton Relaunch​

 

When Marks & Spencer relaunched its Brixton store, the brand turned to London All Stars to create a vibrant cultural celebration. Our steel band in Brixton brought energy, heritage, and community spirit to the event, marking a new chapter for the store.

 

This performance is one of many ways we’ve partnered with major household names to deliver memorable brand activations and corporate entertainment rooted in cultural pride.

The Queen’s Golden Jubilee Orchestra

​

London All Stars was specially selected by Buckingham Palace to form a steel orchestra for Her Majesty The Queen’s Golden Jubilee celebrations.

 

Our founder, Frank Rollock, was later invited to an intimate dinner at Buckingham Palace as a personal thank-you for our contribution — an enduring symbol of the excellence and prestige associated with our music.

Our journey has also taken us to the Commonwealth Games in Australia and into schools such as Ark Evelyn Grace Academy, where we continue our mission of steel pan education by training and inspiring the next generation.
