Corporate FunctionReviewed on February 23, 2017From Tampa, FL

The Island boys were on time for the event and they played background music very nicely as we had discussed. They helped us out with the use of their microphone and speakers for a short welcome speech. We were very satisfied.

We really enjoyed the steel drums for our party. My guests all commented on how nice it sounded. Jesse did a good job. Jesse was very accommodating when I needed to change the start time.

WINSTON OF THE ISLANDBOYS WAS A REAL CROWD PLEASER AT OUR PARTY! HE ARRIVED ON TIME, WAS VERY ORGANIZED, PROFESSIONAL AND PLAYED GREAT MUSIC. ALL OF OUR GUESTS REALLY ENJOYED THE ENTERTAINMENT HE PROVIDED. I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HIM TO FRIENDS AND GLADLY HAVE HIM AGAIN AT OUR NEXT GET-TOGETHER.

Winston did an amazing job with all that we asked of him. His music was perfect for our wedding ceremony on the beach.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on May 28, 2016From Nokomis, FL

The Islandboys were wonderful and exceeded our expectations. They arrived early and were very accomodating setting up on a remote area of the beach for the wedding. Their background music during the wedding was the perfect touch for romance. They professionally fulfilled the role as master of ceremonies for the reception keeping the party moving with a Caribbean flare. No down time in the festivities as they took turns with breaks. From start to finish an absolutely enjoyable experience, on a day that can be very stressful they were a key part of creating a joyful and memorable event. We would not hesitate to recommend them, cant wait to book them for our next event!

Winston played for my wedding ceremony on Lido Beach and continued at our cocktail hour. He played Bob Marley and Carribbean style steeldrum songs, as requested. It added a fun and loving touch to one of the most important days of my life! He was professional and dressed for the part - I would personally recommend The Islandboys to anyone I know and use them for any future needs - Thank you for adding a special unique quality to our wedding Islandboys!

Everything was perfect! The sound was great and Winston was so friendly and was very low maintenance. We loved having his music in the background, it was very pleasant.

Winston performed during cocktail hour at my daughter's wedding. He did a great job and I received many compliments on the quality, volume, and music selection. He is definitely a rock star and made the night a big success. I would definitely recommend him again. Great job.

Winston did a great job at Coconut Point. Excellent musician, arrived early, did not take any breaks he was not allotted, and interacted well with the guests. A polite and professional appearance at the store. Would recommend to use him again.

Private PartyReviewed on January 21, 2016From Sarasota, FL

Winston did an outstanding job. Our daughter was married 12/31/15 at sunset beach resort in siesta key. We invited our guests to join us the next day for a BBQ at the same outdoor venue. The location was perfect and the steel drum music made it even better. Winston was very professional, incredibly kind and very talented. We could not have been any happier. A number of our guests were curious about the steel drum and Winston was very willing to share the history and answer any other questions while still entertaining the group. I would HIGHLY recommend Winston.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on September 10, 2015From Seminole, FL

I used Winston from the Island Boys. There is a choice of one, two or three performers. Winston was very professional, showed up early and set up easily. I hired him for three and a half hours. He took very little break time. His music was very festive with a good variety of melodies. The steel drum music added the perfect ambiance to the party. Our guests just raved about him. Highly recommended!

Excellent selection of tunes, well-played by a friendly professional. The Islandboys worked with me to figure out gig details, so I could stay within my budget. Thanks, Islandboys!

We are completely satisfied with The Island Boys preformance & would book them again in a moments notice. The dance floor was fullat all times & those who did not dance enjoyed the music & has requested we have them back as soon as possible. Their professionalism & talent tops all bands we have had in the past. Thank you Winston & Josh, we just love you. Lorrie & gang.
