Luau Party•Reviewed on September 8, 2026•From Costa Mesa, CA
Many thanks to Bruddah Vince for his performance at our recent luau at Vivante in Costa Mesa. What a great show and our residents truly loved having him back again. He will be our number one call back each luau and for some other shows as well. Professional and interactive with our residents and guests. Had. a lovely selection of music and was very polite and was gracious about playing requests for those who asked. You will not be disappointed in hiring Vince for your event. Thank you again for coming to share your lovely music with our residents and families again.

Megan, It was a wonderful treat to perform for your residents and staff many of who stopped by to smile, compliment, submit song requests, and even gave a few fist bumps! I appreciate you setting up the safety ropes and allowing me a bite to eat from the array of the buffet. What a wonderful time I had and your team was really on the ball! I'm already looking forward to return again next year. Aloha! =)

Celebration•Reviewed on June 9, 2026•From Huntington Beach, CA
Bruddah Vince was awesome! He showed up on time, brought all of his own equipment, and had everything set up and ready to go without any issues. The sound was at the perfect volume throughout the event, and his music brought the perfect island vibe to the Huntington Beach High School Baseball End of Year Banquet.
He was professional, easy to work with, and helped create a fun and relaxed atmosphere that everyone enjoyed. We received so many compliments on the music.
I highly recommend Bruddah Vince for any event, big or small. We would definitely book him again!

I'll see you on the next one. Mahalo Nui Loa! =)

Bruddah Vince played the ukulele and sang Somewhere over the rainbow/wonderful world at the beginning of my moms gravesite service. It was beautiful. We were told by many that it was such a nice welcoming start to a difficult day. I would definitely recommend Brudah Vince. His music and voice were awesome.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 29, 2025•From Calabasas, CA
Vince is the best! He came to play at our house for a child's birthday luau and he did such a great job we asked him back a few weeks later for an adult party. He nailed both. He is extremely punctual and professional. His relaxing, authentic island music immediately creates a fun, chill vibe. Big fan!

Review by Annika B.
Community Event•Reviewed on September 8, 2025•From Rancho Cucamonga, CA
We hosted a Luau event at my Senior Assisted living community, and Island Stylin' with Bruddah "Vince" performed! It is the biggest event of the year with hundreds of attendees. He arrived nice and early, was in great communication the whole time, and was very accommodating. We really enjoyed his performance and he really contributed to the whole event! It would not have been the Luau it was without him there performing! I would recommend hiring him, our senior residents loved his performance.
:
Annika, Thank you so much for coordinating my service into your community Luau. There were multiple vendors performing on a detailed schedule which is impressive since I rarely see this. I was touched by the kindness of your residents many of whom were applauding or swaying to the rhythm and some of them were even dancing. I hope to work with you again on the next one. Aloha!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 11, 2025•From Cypress, CA
Bruddah Vince was the perfect choice for our party! Our space was small and our party was on the smaller side but it couldn’t have been more perfect! He is so professional, punctual and his set up is amazing! Very self contained. He didnt need anything not even a power source. He had other fun songs to play when we were doing the limbo and even sang Happy Birthday when we did cake and was the best background music that wasn’t overpowering for guests that were saving a goof time chatting. He is very talented and his music was so calming. Everyone told us we need to have an annual luau with Vince every year.
Thank you Bruddah Vince for making this day memorable!
:
Tiffany, Thank you very much for hiring me for Loretta's 80th Birthday Party.
I really did enjoy myself as your family and friends cheered me on and made requests that I was happy to accommodate. I appreciate your hospitality and for the delicious food that you offered. Thank you also for helping to keep me hydrated as there will be warmer days ahead. Lastly, Big Mahalo for your generosity. You are a wonderful host. Mahalo Nui Loa!
Review by Hank M.
Luau Party•Reviewed on July 21, 2025•From Huntington Beach, CA
We had the pleasure of having Bruddah Vince perform at our volunteer group's luau, and he was fantastic from start to finish! Vince arrived on time and played for the full two hours we had scheduled. His performance included a beautiful mix of traditional Hawaiian favorites along with special requests from our group, all delivered with warmth and aloha.
Bruddah Vince is a talented musician—his sweet voice, combined with the soothing sounds of his Hawaiian guitar and ukulele, created the perfect island ambiance for our event.
If you’re looking for a genuine, heartfelt Hawaiian entertainer who brings talent and professionalism, we highly recommend Bruddah Vince.
:
Hank, I can't thank you enough for your hospitality and generosity. I had a wonderful time performing a mix of tunes new and old. The care package that your Ohana put together for me was delicious! What an awesome time we had. Until next time Hank, Aloha!

Bruddah Vince was well received by our senior residents! Many residents were seen tapping and swaying to the music as well as singing along to the songs. Many said it reminded them of past vacations in Hawaii and made them feel as though they were back there. It was a very peaceful and entertaining evening. I would highly recommend Vince to other, especially as he was very professional and communicated well. Thank you Vince!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 27, 2025•From La Habra, CA
We had Bruddah Vince play a Birthday/Christmas party around the holidays. I can say with confidence that I would recommend Vince to anyone looking to elevate your event. Bruddah Vince is not only a talented musician but he's so easy and accommodating. Upon arrival he was very pleasant to speak to and once I showed him where to set up he was more than happy to take it from there. He loaded in his gear and was set up in a very timely manner. During our party Vince played all of our favorite songs and even took request as the night went on. Bruddah Vince is a true professional!
:
Karol, your event was unique! I enjoyed the ideas of an Island / Christmas song-list, Personal Tiki mugs, and ornament exchanges. Thank you for painting a picture of what you wanted as it gave me an idea on how to set the tone, create a festive mood and enhance the general ambience for your audience. Let's have another event down the road, Karol. A Hui Hou!
