He was absolutely great. The music was a perfect fit to our wedding. I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Thank you so much for everything.

Convention•Reviewed on March 19, 2010•From Saint Petersburg, FL

The Islandboys were truly first class! They were easy to work with pre-event, professional and reliable on-site, both showing up on time, playing crowd appropriate songs and engaging the attendees, and were an overall pleasure to work with. I will definitely call upon them again if/when we return to St. Petersburg for our Convention. Thank you guys for an entertaining event!

Luau Party•Reviewed on March 7, 2010•From Saint Petersburg, FL

The Island Boys made our party a total success. They performed for our Boat Club's "Island Bash" and we heard nothing but positive feedback. The normal attendance for our community's events leaves soon after the food is served. Everyone stayed later and we actually asked the Island Boys to stay and perform for an additional hour. I have never seen so many people on the dance floor. We cannot wait until next year's "2nd Annual Island Bash." Hopefully, the Island Boys will be available then. Many thanks for making our event a great memory.

I hired Winston for my husband's surprise Birthday Party. Winstom was early to set the keyboard, microphone and all the equitment he needed to perform nice music. He was very professional and kind. For sure I will hire him again.

I would recommend the Island Boys to anyone looking for steel drums. They were perfect at our beach wedding and gave it that perfect island feel. All of our guests were surprised and really enjoyed the drums. Thank you so much!! -Nicole and Michael

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 16, 2009•From Longboat Key, FL

Jesse was on time and professional. He was entertaining and polite. The only thing I would have changed...... before you break down equipment ask the host if overtime is desired. I would have kept him playing another hour. I would be open to any feedback as well pertaining to being a better host for a musical venue. Thanks for being available and best of everything, Cynthia Knight

:

First and foremost I would like to say that everyone at this party was very nice and kind to me. I'd like to thank the gracious host,Cynthia Knight. I was contracted to play three hours, till 10:00. At 10:00 I took a break and searched the whole property for Cynthia. I couln't find her so I broke down the equipment. At approx. 10:40 Cynthia paid me with a generous tip. I regret not being able to find her, so she could have informed me her desire to extended the music beyond the agreed time. Jesse

We were very pleased with the Island Boys. They were the perfect band that fit in with our Fair them of "Beach Party". Their music was great and got many of our fair patrons dancing. They were flexible and worked around the weather by arriving and starting early. They were also very friendly and nice to work with. I would hire them back in a minute. Thanks Island Boys for coming to our fair!
