Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on January 30, 2023•From Key Largo, FL

Winston and the Island Boys are amazing! They have exceeded every expectation imaginable from the initial quote to the execution of the event. The communication was excellent, the professionalism was top notch, and the performance was unrivaled. He and his team were reasonable on any special requests and could play any song thought of in a steel drum/island version. Winston is a true gentleman and one of the kindest people I've met. My wife and I are so happy we hired the Island Boys for our special event as they definitely helped make it one to remember. If you are looking for entertainment for you next event, look no further and hire the Island Boys!

The person that was scheduled to come did not come and sent his son instead and was late to our event.

Community Event•Reviewed on July 17, 2022•From Ruskin, FL

The Island Boys were a wonderful addition to our Caribbean outdoor event. Everyone who attended enjoyed the music. Winston even took time to show some of the children how the drums worked.

Winston from Island Boys was our steel drum player New Years Eve and he did an outstanding job! He sent a couple of reminder emails and arrived in plenty of time and set up quickly. His music was awesome, all of our friends got up to dance, Highly recommend!

Wonderful job! Winston was so nice and pleasant to do business with. Everyone loved the steel drum music at our wedding. We will definitely hire them for future events. Thank you!

Memorial Day Party•Reviewed on May 26, 2009•From Sarasota, FL

Hiring the Island Boys was the smartest thing I did for my party -- by far. They set the stage for the event, and filled my backyard with music that transported us to the "Islands". I heard from others who want to hire them!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 24, 2009•From Punta Gorda, FL

Jesse of the Island Boys was fantastic. My party was a total success and Jesse provided absolutely the best music for my birthday party - Tropical Nights - Caribbean Style. His music was perfect. I've gotten many phone calls saying that my party was the best that many had ever attended. And, of course, everyone wanted to know how to reach the Island Boys should they want entertainment for their own Island Party! Great! Karen Lyons Punta Gorda, FL

Wedding•Reviewed on May 17, 2009•From Saint Petersburg, FL

The Island Boys did a wonderful job playing at my beach wedding. Many guests came up to me and stated how cool it was that he could play Canon in D and other traditional wedding songs on the Steel Drum. Thanks for making our wedding unique!

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on May 10, 2009•From Saint Petersburg, FL

We were very pleased with the performance and professionalism of Josh (our performer) and Winston his dad, with whom we made arrangements. The music was wonderful - exactly what we wanted. Josh and Winston worked with us on the song list, the duration of the gig, and the special song requests for our daughter's birthday. The party was so successful, we extended him an hour on the spot and the guests were begging to keep him all night. We would have, but it was Josh's anniversary, so we reluctantly let him go home! We had a wonderful experience with Josh, very polite, easy going and talented! Great steel drum player!

The Island Boys, Jesse, was excellent. My guests were very pleased with Jesse's performance. He was courteous and very accomadating to my guests. I recommend the Island Boys to anyone who wants a Steel Drum Band. I certainly will use the Island Boys again for my next party. Thank you Gigmasters.
