Celebration•Reviewed on September 16, 2009•From Harleysville, PA

I could not have been more satisfied with the performance given by Kristian. He performed for our residents at peter Becker Retirement Community for our Caribbean theme meal. The residents were extremely pleased with his performance and were still raving about it weeks later. We will definitely have him back again. Thanks again Kristian, Nick Boehmer- Dining Room Supervisor

Happy Hour•Reviewed on September 11, 2009•From Spring Lake, NJ

For our daughter’s wedding on Aug 22, 2009 at the Breaker's in Spring Lake, we wanted music during the outdoor cocktail hour. We could not have selected a better musician than Kristian Paradis and his steel drum. Kristian was excellent. The music he played was outstanding, his attire and professional appearance were superb. Our guests were entertained by the soft/island melody Kristian played on his steel drum. We recommend him very highly to anyone looking for a great musical performance. I will most certainly use Kristian again in the future.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 16, 2012•From Marlton, NJ

Kristian did a fantastic job performing at my father's birthday party. He was exactly what we wanted...fun, island type, background music. People could talk while he was playing (not too loud). He has a variety of songs and styles he plays, and he played "Happy Birthday" while we sang. Everyone said what a great job Kristian did. He was also very nice and friendly. I would definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone considering a steel drum player.

Kristian was a fabulous addition to my husband's 40th birthday celebration. All of my guests commented on how much they loved the live entertainment. He was on time, played requests and even played a polka for my in-laws who got up and danced!!! I would defintely recommend Kristian for your event.

Cocktail Party•Reviewed on September 9, 2011•From East Windsor, NJ

Kristian was very professional. He arrived early for the event and was very accomodating to being moved inside due to the weather. The music sounded great and he even took some requests from guests. I would recommend him for another party and hope to use him again for another Caribbean Themed Party.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 14, 2011•From Pottstown, PA

Kristian performed at our annual Caribbean Fest. He was extremely talented and entertaining. He captured the attention of 5 year old children as well as 80 year old adults. We were concerned about hiring him as a one man band, but with his backing tracks, he turned our ordinary party into extraordinary.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 11, 2020•From Point Pleasant Beach, NJ

Kristian was very easy to work with. He arrived early to set up. He was very professional and friendly. He even showed the kids how to play the drum and let them try at the end of the set. Highly recommend Kristian.

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on June 22, 2015•From Pelham, NY

I was lucky to find this amazing performer here. I am so glad I did! We had a birthday party for 60 people (ages 1 yo to 65) the music made all the diference! I never had so many compliments on the musician! He played wonderfully! People often told me how he seemed to be really enjoying himself, and I agree! He was perfect! He is very skilled, uses back up music which makes the whole experience even better, as it sounds like a whole band! The music was perfect for talking, he arrived rcen earlier than agreed, set up really nicely with his own decoration which h were so nice. 1000% satisfied!!! We will definitely repeat.

Celebration•Reviewed on March 1, 2015•From Collegeville, PA

If there were extra stars I would award them to Kristian Paradis. He was excellent in every way and he is extremely talented. All of the guests could not say enough good about him. My son, the one getting married said that he couldn't have imagined a better rehearsal dinner. Thank you Kristian!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 9, 2014•From Beach Haven, NJ

He was the perfect addition to our ceremony/reception. Added a great vibe. He was friendly and eager to help make our day special--and he did! We couldn't have been happier with him and would highly recommend him to anyone. Thanks again Kristian!

Private Party•Reviewed on August 15, 2013•From Philadelphia, PA

Kristian is a true talent with a very professional approach. All of our guests had wonderful comments - he was perfect for our island themed event. Krisitian was also very accommodating as we moved his playing venue during the timeframe of our event. I would most definitely hire Kristian again!

Kris always took our calls and even learned Colombian music and played some doors... He was very professional and easy to plan with at a terrific price. Our guests loved him! Highly reccomend him!
