Seven remarkable teen musicians, Ahmel, Aaron, Spencer, Dayshawn, Andre, Steven, and Dha'sean, in a Hamilton Hill Steel Drum Band travel together for the journey of a lifetime. Talent scouts from the famous Apollo Theater are arriving in the boys' hometown. After beating the competition there, the band goes to New York City to compete against the best amatuer acts in front of the Apollo Amatuer Night audiences. The competition got tougher, but using their unique sound, the friends impressed the crowds time after time.
