WATCH: University of Akron Steel Drum Band Performs at Orchard Hill

When Sonya Ash saw the University of Akron Steel Drum Band perform at Jackson High School, she knew she had to find a way to get them to North Canton.

"As soon as I hard them, I knew I had to get them here somehow," the  music teacher.

She got her wish Friday as the band performed for students and staff at Orchard Hill. A $2,000 arts grant from Target stores made it all possible, she said.

The Owls of Steel, Orchard Hill's very own steel drum band, performed at the end of the concert. The band, made up of students in each grade (first through fifth), take part in a six-week after-school enrichment program led by University of Akron graduate Amber Mace.

We caught all the action in two separate videos — the first featuring the University of Akron Steel Drum Band and the second spotlighting the Owls of Steel.
