Hotel Event•Reviewed on September 5, 2016•From Torrance, CA

Desmond was perfect for our event, professional, on time, and knew how to please our group. I was concerned his music would be too loud as we wanted mostly background music, but he understood our needs perfectly. When the time was right, he even sang a couple numbers. I would not hesitate to recommend Desmond !

Desmond was a complete joy and wonderful musician and person! He was professional and delivered beyond our expectations. The honoree of the day was ecstatic about her steel drummer. Would definitely book him again. Thank you Desmond!

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on March 7, 2016•From Newport Beach, CA

I'm very picky about vendors and I don't have anything negative to say about Desmond. He was such a phenomenal performer at my daughter's first birthday party! He has such a wonderful demeanor and his music was such a fun addition. He exceeded my expectations and the guests loved him! You can tell he really loves what he does. His lively energy boosted the ambience and made it SO much fun. Of all the things I splurged on for the party, this was my favorite one. Would definitely hire him again in the future!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 25, 2015•From Newport Beach, CA

Desmond played for my wedding reception on 8/8/15. His steel pan playing was exceptional. He arrived and set on time and was ready to play right on schedule. He was a real crowd pleaser to all. Desmond helped to make my special day "perfect".

Family Reunion•Reviewed on August 11, 2015•From Apple Valley, CA

This my 3rd time hiring Desmond for my family's event. He has always been professional, and a great person to have and to entertain my family. His music is very relaxing, fun, and enjoyable to listen to. We would most likely have him to play again for us in the near future.

Desmond was, once again, a fantastic addition to our beach party. There is nothing that compares to the sound of the steel drum drifting through the air to make people relax and enjoy the moment. Thanks again Desmond!

Desmond was very professional, on time, groomed appropriately and intereacted with staff and guests in a warm and friendly manner. Everyone loved the music! It was perfect for our event - upbeat, lively, but not too loud or intrusive. Desmond customized his set-up and presentation to specifically what we needed. We will definately hire him again!

Community Event•Reviewed on September 17, 2013•From Newport Coast, CA

Desmond is an exceptional musician! We are a gated community overlooking the ocean with a setting too beautiful for words and his music was the highlight of the evening. I'd hire him again in a minute.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on June 29, 2013•From Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

Desmond was incredible!!! He helped us out tremendously in a last minute bind when our scheduled group backed out with a few days notice. Truth be told we are really happy they did! Desmond was incredibly professional and diligent; he followed up with me the day before the event and after. His music was atuthentic and exactly what we were looking for! I highly receommend him to anyone - we will certainly be using him for future events! Thank you Desmond!! - Lisa

Celebration•Reviewed on July 13, 2012•From Apple Valley, CA

I thought that Desmond was very professional. He arrived early in order to set up equipment. He was a take charge, no-nonsense kind of guy; but very cordial and nice. His music and choice of songs were excellent. I look forward to calling Desmond again in the near future for other events.
