NIck was a pleasure to deal with in the planning stages, and had everything wired, and ready to go, with plenty of time to spare. Nick is an incredible musician, and for this gig we asked, late in the game, if could bring live accompaniment. Doug, the guitar player, was also awesome. Together they provided us with an magical night by the sea.

Nick was fantastic and very accommodating, he even set up his umbrella that he brought for us to use for our registration table, since he did not need it for that evening. Nick was friendly and easy to work with. Thanks Nick for doing a GREAT job!

Family Reunion•Reviewed on July 9, 2017•From Longport, NJ

Nick was perfect. The songs were a great. Background for a Very noisy party crew. Nick was extremely pleasant . Totally self sufficient and never asked for anything. Our whole family would love to hire Nick again for our parties.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on July 25, 2016•From Parsippany, NJ

We couldn't have been happier! Nick played everything we requested and did so much more. When we wanted to add a "sing a long" the day of the party, he was smiling and played right along with our singers. He didn't overwhelm us with loud music and made our party that much more enjoyable. I HIGHLY recommend him for anyone who wants to feel like they are "really" in the Islands

We were so happy with Nick's performance! He was very professional through the whole process from booking all the way to his performance. He was accommodating to our middle school set up. Our students and their parents loved his performance and it added to our event theme of "Tropical Paradise." Thanks so much!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on August 31, 2015•From North East, MD

Nick was fantastic!! Our wedding reception was huge....(250 people) Many of the Wedding reception guests commented on how great it was and inquired as to where we found Sounds of the Islands. Look no Further! You will not be disappointed!! Thanks Nick!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 17, 2015•From Clementon, NJ

Nick was great! Sent a huge list of songs, asked about special requests, even checked on how he planned to dress to make sure it was okay and gave alternate options. We had him for the outside cocktail hour at our wedding in August, and it gave it a nice soft tropical feel, made it extra special. I would highly recommend.

Fundraiser•Reviewed on August 14, 2014•From Long Branch, NJ

We cannot say enough about the quality of Sounds Of The Island! Nick is a true professional and our guests loved every minute of his music. He played the entire 4 hours+ at our fund raiser and we can't hardly remember him taking a break! He was enjoyed by guests from the age of 5 to 84! We look forward to booking him again! If you are looking for a great steel drum player, do not hesitate to book Sounds Of The Island! Thanks again Nick :)
