Family Reunion•Reviewed on November 6, 2010•From Tampa, FL

Did a great job at my small family reunion/backyard party. Gave the family patriach a steel drum lesson that made his day and engaged the group. Would hire him again.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on November 5, 2021•From Sarasota, FL

He arrived on time and everyone really enjoyed the experience. They really set the mood of the event and would highly recommend them for your event. We had a cooperate event but would imagine they would be perfect for any party.

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on July 11, 2021•From Tampa, FL

He sounds like a professional streamed music band. Many guests thought we were playing a Spotify playlist and were shocked when i told them he was a live one man band. I would definitely hire him again for our next party.

Winston was responsive to my email questions and arrived early for the event. He was pleasant and gracious and what beautiful music he made happen with those steel drums!! It added the perfect tropical ambiance to my annual customer appreciation party!

Club Event•Reviewed on January 13, 2020•From Apollo Beach, FL

The Island Boys did a great job at the Tampa Sailing Squadron regatta party! As the organizer, I was very pleased to receive very positive feedback from attendees who enjoyed the music, which was very appropriate to the venue and theme of the event. We will certainly plan to have them back at future events.

Fundraiser•Reviewed on November 20, 2019•From Placida, FL

Winston and the Band were right on time and super easy to work with. Once we pointed them in the direction of set up they did their thing and I didn't have to think about it again!!! The music was perfect.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 17, 2019•From Placida, FL

Winston and his son played a nice variety of songs during our 3 hour event. Our guests complimented us over and over again with how nice the party was and how great the musicians were. We got out on the patio to dance to the sounds and everyone had a good time. Winston and son were talented, respectful, punctual and considerate. I'd highly recommend them.

Rehearsal Dinner•Reviewed on November 1, 2019•From Clearwater, FL

We were very pleased with the Island Boys for our wedding welcome party. Since this was a destination wedding, we did not have the opportunity to meet with them prior to our event. They were extremely professional and talented and provided exactly the vibe we were looking for!! I would highly recommend them.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 7, 2019•From Sarasota, FL

I guess my biggest issues was the communication issue between us. Booked with one person, emailed by another and called by someone else so I wasn’t confident that I was dealing with the same company or pawned off on someone else .. I was finally assured the other callers were other members of the band ( father/son etc) but happy overall after weeks of confusion was over.

I don't understand why the client should be confused. From the first conversation with the client, I booked the job for my partner in our compnany... my son Jesse. He called the client before the gig to discuss details. He showed up early and did a great professional job. I don't understand the reason for concern. winston the islandlboys

Community Event•Reviewed on June 16, 2019•From Pinellas Park, FL

Winston and his drummer were great for our caribbean party! We are a 55+ community but had guests of all ages which ALL enjoyed their music. Wide variety and they seemed to be able to judge when to change the tempo to keep guests up and dancing. It was also great that Winston went back and forth from the Steel Drums to the keyboard ..it added more depth to the music and didn't hurt anyones ears. Vocals were also great! Our residents are already asking to have them back again and it was just last night!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 9, 2018•From Sarasota, FL

I hired the Island Boys (very last minute) for my husband's 42 birthday party. Winston (The Island Boys) was early to the gig, played the genre of music I asked for, and was open to song requests. He had a wide range of repertoire and was a very talented musician who always had a smile on his face. I highly recommend him for your event! Christy from Sarasota

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on November 15, 2018•From Sarasota, FL

Winston was great! We hired him as a "one-man-band" for our restaurant's birthday party and he did a wonderful job. He even adjusted the volume of play depending on how many people were in the restaurant at a given time. He arrived an hour and a half early and kept our guests entertained and happy. What more could we ask for? Would definitely hire him again!

We hired the Island Boys for our wedding at the Sandbar on June 25th. Winston and Steve were setup and ready to go at 5pm and played till almost 930 as requested. They did a fantastic job and helped bring the Caribbean to our beach wedding. Would highly recommend. Dave & Carrie
