West Indian musicians introduced [[calypso music]] when Bermuda's tourist industry was expanded with the increase of visitors brought by post-Second World War aviation. Local icons the [[The Talbot Brothers of Bermuda|Talbot Brothers]] performed calypso music for a number of decades both in Bermuda and the United States, and appeared on the ''[[Ed Sullivan Show]]''. While calypso appealed more to tourists than to the local residents, [[reggae]] has been embraced by a number of Bermudians since the 1970s with the influx of [[Jamaicans|Jamaican]] immigrants.
