Private Party•Reviewed on August 1, 2016•From New York City, NY

A truly great experience! The booking process was simple, and a telephone conversation with Nepo was a pleasant way to assure that he and his musicians understood the nature of the event and our musical requests. The evening of the event Nepo and his Trinidadian steel drum master arrived promptly and were entirely ready when the party began. Their musicianship was superb, and they enchanted the audience with their stage presence and charisma. Many guests commented on how much the music added to the event. I would work with Nepo anytime!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 12, 2015•From Bay Shore, NY

Our wedding was a hit hugely in part to AfriCarib! They are talented, friendly and accomodating! They truly made us all feel like we were on vacation with their gorgeous steel pan beats! I would hire AfriCarib again in a heart beat....even guests who were not part of our wedding were asking about them. THANK YOU NEPO!!!!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 10, 2015•From Huntington, NY

AfriCarib was a source of phenominal entertainment at my graduation party for medical school. They have many members available for varying party sizes. From the moment I met them there were godo vibes and positive energy. Their sound carried the rhythm of the party and all my guests were raving about them. Even those that you might not expect to like this kind of music were vibing along with the Steel pan and keyboard! Thank you again AfriCarib. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a great source of entertainment for a backyard party or maybe background music in other venue medium! also gigmasters ROCKS!

I could not have been more happy with the day,the party, and Africaribe's steel drum band to accompany the party. The music added just the right touch to an outdoor freeness and light celebratory feeling. As the music lifted and carried through the air it made people get relaxed and loose and moving on their feet! The music did not dominate the party, but added to the atmosphere of joy that was already there. And the band leader, Nepo was a delightfully warm, easy and professional person to deal with. I will definitely use him again and recommend him to others.

Before my wedding I spoke to the gentleman on the phone. The day of the wedding as we were walking up from the beach I heard the music and it was perfect. He made my wedding complete. Thanks

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 4, 2012•From Larchmont, NY

We had a backyard party and were thrilled to have AfriCarib perform for my husbands milestone birthday celebration. Nipo is highly talented, professional, prompt, and courteous. All of the guests enjoyed the music....from the adults to the four little children who couldnt take their eyes of of him. I can't wait to have him back!

Picnic•Reviewed on August 17, 2010•From Weston, CT

Nepo and the band were really great. Fun, very nice and polite to all of my guests, amazing musicians, and a lot of fun. They were on time, took appropriate breaks, and basically did everything that you would expect them to do. And they did it all very very well. I would strongly recommend them for any event.
