Private Party•Reviewed on May 14, 2025•From Winchester, MA

We had the pleasure of having Phil perform at our backyard luau party, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment he arrived, he brought an incredible energy and warmth that set the perfect tone for our celebration. Phil’s skill on the steel drums is truly impressive. The music was a delightful blend of traditional Caribbean tunes and familiar favorites, creating a vibrant atmosphere that had everyone smiling and tapping their feet. The sound of the steel drums transported us to a tropical paradise, making our guests feel like they were on a sandy beach. We couldn’t have asked for a better addition to our luau!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on January 8, 2018•From Niantic, CT

They did a great job at our wedding. There was a lot of confusion on our behalf and they still did a great job. I appreciate everything they did. Not to mention they drove a long way to do it. I would definitely book again. And to those getting married the steel drums sound so magical!!!

Thank you again Steel Accent for a wonderful experience.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on August 22, 2010•From Humarock, MA

These guys really did a phenominal job playing at our beach party yesterday. They made the day an extra special one for everybody in attendance. Countless friends and family made very positive comments throughout the day. They arrived 45 minutes prior to the start time and played a solid 4 flawless hours. All of them were very professional and courteous. I wish they could have played all night long. I'm already trying to think of an excuse for a party to get them back to the beach next summer.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 17, 2010•From Braintree, MA

Steel Accent did an excellent job for our wedding reception and cocktail hour. Everyone commented how great it was to hear "Here comes the bride" on steel drums, and even the older guests appreciated that there wasn't an over amplified band or DJ playing at the wedding. We're so glad we found steel accent, and passed their name/number along to many wedding attendees for their future parties. If you are looking for a soothing experience for your next gathering, event, or party, seriously consider these guys. They were great to work with on the business side of things as well. Thanks again guys! See you in 2020 for our 10 year anniversary!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 29, 2014•From Stratham, NH

Steel Accent did a great job playing background music during our wedding cocktail hour (3 hours). They sounded just as expected and several of our guests commented how good they were. They created the perfect ambience and even managed to get a few of us dancing earlier than the dancing was due to start. We would definitely recommend them to others for a wedding or any other event. Communication was fast and professional.

Steel accent was wonderful! On time and professional. They really made our cocktail hour one to remember. Great talent!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on July 2, 2013•From Osterville, MA

Steel Accent was awesome for our party. We had many attendees comment on how great the music was, and a few friends took their information, and plan on hiring them for future events. The band took one short break in 3hrs, and played relaxing tunes while the attendees were able to communicate at a normal voice level, but could hear the music when they wanted to enjoy.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 19, 2011•From Manchester, CT

Steel Accent sounded great! They were very friendly to deal with. I got many compliments about how great they were. I was a little focused on not tripping as I walked down the aisle, but I do remember they sounded awesome!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 18, 2011•From Franklin, MA

It was just too bad that the weather didn't cooperate. The rain caused people to congregate in the house rather than the outside tent area. Good time thou! Thanks

Fundraiser•Reviewed on November 21, 2010•From Mansfield, MA

Steel Accents was great! Everyone at our fundraiser commented on how good they were. They also were very accomadating to our needs since we are a non profit and it was a fundraising event. I would highly recommend Steel Accents to anyone.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on July 10, 2011•From Sutton, MA

Steel Accent was a pleasure to work with and our guests loved them! I can highly recommend them to anyone. Several of our guests were curious about the drums and they were kind enough to explain them and let them try them out. I hope to hire them again!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 26, 2010•From South Wellfleet, MA

We had a blast! My only suggestion would be for Phil to maybe take a public speaking class, or "Toasting" class- he was very professional and nice but seemed very shy which can be awkward in a lively "party" setting.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 2, 2011•From Jamestown, RI

Phil was very accommodating and easy to work with when we were making our arrangements and on the day he and Murray provided just the right touch of atmosphere that gave our event the festive vibe we had been hoping for. Our guests all loved it. We feel very fortunate to have connected up with them through the Gigmaster website. Sue and Peter Alexander
