Community Event•Reviewed on February 27, 2025•From Elon, NC

Jaimie Shores was perfect for this event. The music was amazing, the talent was great, and it fit the purpose of the event perfectly. We only had her for background music for a little and the a little performance, I know if she did other bigger events, it would be perfect!!

Thanks, Tyler and all for inviting me to play - I had a blast!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 13, 2023•From Monroe, NC

We thoroughly enjoyed the island vibe at my daughter's graduation party! Jaimie was professional, she set up quickly and set the tone for the afternoon! I will definitely book her again! Thank you for "The Hammer" I was so ecstatic that she knew about my favorite Steel Pan great Andy Narell!

Jamie did a fabulous job for us. She was on time, friendly and very talented. We offered several of her cards to our guest. We look forward to having Jamie come again for our next event.

Thanks, Frank and family! I had a wonderful time at the party and am happy to perform again for your next event.

We are very satisfied repeat customers! Jaimie's music and performance truly give a Caribbean vibe to a party. Our guests loved her and said they felt like they had been on vacation! Like getting a steel drum band for the price of a soloist, truly a great experience and value!

We were thrilled to have Jaimie perform at our Luau event in June. She did an amazing job & we only heard positive things from our guests who came out to enjoy the day. Would recommend, and would definitely book again! Thank you, Jaimie, for the tropical vibes & music you brought to our event!

Jaimie was FANTASTIC for our Lake Norman island party! Her music really transported our guests to a happy, festive mindset. Her set up and breakdown was quick and we appreciated her openness to execute our party vision. She was very accommodating, arrived on time (even a bit early!) and was flexible when we asked to extend our play time. We are so happy Jaimie/Island Shores is now in the Charlotte, NC area and we look forward to hiring her again and referring to our friends!!

Thanks, Lauren for an amazing event on the lake! It was our own slice of heaven and it was a pleasure to perform music for your guests.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on August 18, 2014•From Roselle, IL

WOW! Jaimie/Island Shores was the perfect start to what was a perfect wedding. She helped create a Destination Beach Wedding ambience in the middle of Roselle, IL. She is professional, prompt and very talented. In other words, she was fantastic! I would definitely hire her again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 20, 2021•From York, SC

Responsive with e-mail communication prior to event. Pricing fair and clearly laid out in contract. Seemed to genuinely enjoy her craft. We had an outdoor lake party of about 20+ guests in the 40-50 age range. Played for 3 hours with two short breaks. Engaged guests. Highly recommend.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 16, 2021•From Concord, NC

Jaimie provided excellent music and a fabulous Caribbean vibe for our poolside 50th birthday party. She provided a song list ahead of time, was extremely prompt and professional in communications and planning. She was so good at the party that we asked her on the fly to stay for an extra hour. We agreed the fee on the spot and she didn't miss a beat! She played Happy Birthday for cake time and timed her breaks at convenient times. A pleasure to work with and highly recommend!

Thank you very much, Cathy, it was a pleasure to play for you!

Church Service•Reviewed on February 20, 2017•From Fort Atkinson, WI

Jaimie Shores played for a tropical-themed worship service at our church. She and I collaborated on the worship service and music choices. She stayed after the service to demonstrate her instrument and answer questions, and to socialize with the congregation. Our church members were impressed with her talent and gifts, and enjoyed getting to talk with her. We all hope we will have the opportunity to invite her back for another worship service!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 6, 2016•From Big Rock, IL

We used Jaimie this past weekend for our ceremony and cocktail hour at our barn wedding. I was receiving compliments about Jaimie all night! Everyone thought it was such a unique and cool idea, and about how good she was!! So happy we decided to go with Island Shores! Jaimie was also very understanding of the stresses of wedding prep. We decided late in the game, approx a week before, to get a steel drum player and she was so wonderful to deal with even with the extreme short notice. Highly recommend! It was awesome :)
