Private Party•Reviewed on September 25, 2026•From Melville, NY

AMAZING Band! Unwavering talent!! They played at our Anniversary Party and we're phenomenal. They helped us bring the island vibes to our event. Everyone had such a blast and couldn't stop talking about how great the band was! Khan was responsive, reliable, and punctual. He delivered everything he promised. Very easy to communicate with.

Engagement Party•Reviewed on August 17, 2026•From Bellmore, NY

They were awesome! We had a tropical themed backyard engagement party with 70 guests. The band was above and beyond my expectations. They played multiple instruments with the steel drum as the focal piece. They played upbeat caribbean music. Everyone enjoyed them. It made our party. I highly, highly recommend them. They are excellent.

Feeling Irie brought so much joy and magic to our special day Khan's ukulele rendition of Over the Rainbow as I walked down the aisle was breathtaking...the steel drums and drummer during cocktail hour were such a fun addition along with our beach wedding and sunset. He truly understands how to tailor his music to your vision. Our guests were completely swept up in the moment and felt like they were on vacation .

I can’t say enough great things about Khan and his band. He communicated well throughout the process, helped me think through playlist, arrived on time, and everyone said Feelin Irie was the highlight of the evening. We had him, his bongo player, and his guitar player handle the ceremony music & cocktail hour music, and in hindsight, I wish we had had them stay longer because they were phenomenal and set such a great vibe for the beginning of the event. Half of our family is from Trinidad where steel pan was created so he had a high bar to meet and far exceeded everyone’s expectations. He even let my husband try the bongos which made for some great photographs.

The Band came an hour early to ensure everything was perfect! They played at our first annual beach party on Candlewood Isle in New Fairfield CT, which was such a huge success and got over 30 different people complimenting the bands chill vibe and ability to play all the great hits! I will be using this band for all my reggae and Caribbean events! The band leader Khan shows up with his team ready to give their heart and soul! Love these guys!

The band was perfect for our Summer Luau bbq! They played several different songs on various instruments and appreciated their talent. They were accommodating in booking the gig the day of. Would definitely use them again and recommend them!

Completely blown away by the talent, flexibility, and overall experience that made my celebration an over the top event. From battling the rain to customizing songs the band catered to our every dream for the celebration of a lifetime. We will definitely be booking again for future events. Thanks again for getting everyone on the dance for rain or shine!

The band was amazing! They arrived early, we’re so engaging and everyone had a blast! They performed 4 shows throughout the day at our summer camp. The kids and staff loved it and it was different and authentic! The musicians were extremely talented and really added to our special event!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 8, 2023•From Southport, CT

We were utterly delighted and appreciative of Feelin IRIE's music! The IRIE vibe was flowing aplenty that night! Khan and Oscar were professional and accommodating in every way. It was an intimate setting marking a special family occasion and they made it all the more special with their music. We would ask them back to our next event without hesitation. With special thanks to Khan.

Celebration•Reviewed on August 8, 2016•From Bethlehem, CT

The band was simply FABULOUS and really got the party going (although we do love to party!)!!! From the start of the booking process, Kahn was very flexible, accommodating and professional. On the day of the event, they arrived earlier, were warm and friendly and never needed even to be told WHAT to play. They provided an exceptional "flow" and diversity to the music played and, coming from a West Indian, that is a super compliment!! What a great and talented choice for my annual BBQ Fete! Several of my guests took the band's contact info and commented at how a simple trio could accomplish such a "big band" sound. Book them NOW before we beat you to it!!!

Both my guests and I were extremely happy with the performance, congeniality toward guests and "easy going island feel" that it lent to my party. Can't wait until next time?? ????????????????????Thank you, Khan????????????????????

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 7, 2016•From Quogue, NY

I was 100% satisfied with feelin irie, he was professional , on time the music was amazing and he was very easy to work with. The band leader called me the day of the party to tell me they were on the way, arrived on time, had no special needs (as most bands do when they arrive i.e. Coffee, food, drinks etc) and played until the last minute contracted My client said if he had closed his eyes during the party he would have felt he was in the Caribbean . I would definitely recommend the band and I'm sure i will be using them again

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on April 1, 2013•From New Rochelle, NY

Feeling Irie played at my wedding and I could not be happier. He arrived before the time scheduled and was able to change the mood of all my guests to upbeat and happy. Everyone is still talking about what a great time they had listening to the steel drums. I am really pleased that I selected feeling Irie for my wedding. If you are in doubt please don’t hesitate people will talk about the music for months and years to come.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 28, 2017•From Rye, NY

Feelin IRIE elevated the entire mood of our wedding. Khan and his conga player provided the perfect vibe and ambience to make our day special. For our ceremony, we had specific song requests and all were delivered. Many of our friends and family with musical backgrounds praised Feelin Irie's technical ability and keen song selection. For some tunes, they utilized a backing track (bass, keys/guitar) that enhanced the sound and helped highlight melodies. The duo were well dressed, looked sharp and highly professional. My wife and I are still receiving compliments, most noting how unique and perfect a choice for a wedding. Thank you, Kahn!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 24, 2013•From Staten Island, NY

I'm always somewhat skeptical of reviews but I'm a real person who had a real party & feelin irie were fabulous. I had a backyard hawaiian/carribean luau theme bday which these guys were perfect for but I would trust kun & crew in any setting.. Extremely professional, easy to work with, showed up early & played beautiful music throughout. Highly recommend these guys.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 10, 2013•From Montvale, NJ

We had a luau themed house party and Kun played for the first two hours. He was amazing! I (and all the guests) loved him, his music and his vocals. He was professional, easy going/flexible (we almost had to move the date due to the storm), and his music really set the right tone and vibe of the party. I would engage him again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend him!
