Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 3, 2012•From Carmel, IN

Kent was absolutely wonderful. The music was wonderful and created the perfect atmosphere for our party. Everyone commented about how much they enjoyed the music.

That's very kind of you, thank YOU so much. I had a great time too. See you again sometime!

Kent was the perfect entertainment for our Lake Holiday Festival, many residents complimented our group for hiring him! The steel drum music was played to perfection, Kent was courteous and the crowd loved him. We are hoping to have him back next year! Worth every penny.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on August 5, 2009•From Glenview, IL

Kent arrived on time, set up, and had a wonderful sound that set the island mood right from the start! After cocktails, he reset up for the dinner hour and dancing portion in another room and was truly well-modulated and accommodating in every way. He let us use his mike and put into his computer a cd we wanted for a special song! He was more than pleasant in every way and everyone loved his music and him too!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 25, 2012•From Owosso, MI

Kent played for our daughter's wedding reception. She had been married on a beach out of state, and had a reception later at home. We wanted to carry that "beachy" feel back to Michigan. The steel drums were a great backdrop for that, and many of the guests were intrigued, wanting to watch him play and asking where we found a steel drum musician! During one of his breaks, he dj'd some songs that the kids really enjoyed, so he kept those songs going to keep the kids interested. Good intuitive move. My 4 1/2 stars were because, as much fun as the steel drums were, few of the songs were recognizable, at least to me. Everything else was great.
