Review by Cala A.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 14, 2026•From Middletown, NJ

Mr. Sterling C Sample's Island Music Steel Drums is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! He performed for my mother's 80th birthday celebration and he brought the VIBES! From the cocktail hour to his PHENOMENAL rendition of "Royal" for my mom's grand entrance, Mr. Sterling kept the audience entertained from beginning to end. He performed a variety of music, including gospel and reggae, effortlessly! Mr. Sterling was professional and worked well with the DJ, MC, and the various elements in our program. Our guests are still RAVING about the performance. I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Sterling for your entertainment needs! You will not regret it! We will definitely use him again!!!

We hired Sterling C. Sample to play the steel drum at a Surprise birthday party in Long Beach Island, NJ. Sterling was on time, played a great mix of music, had everyone dancing and singing along. He was also super kind, professional and courteous. We can’t wait to hire him again for a future event!

High School Reunion•Reviewed on November 26, 2018•From Rutherford, NJ

Having Sterling at your event will guarantee fun! I had him attend for the final 1.5 hours of my high school reunion. We had a DJ for the first part, then Sterling came in as a surprise and blew everyone away. People loved the steel drums and he got everyone dancing - so much fun!

We hired Sterling for our cocktail hour and let me tell you, it WAS THE best decision we made. He was so professional and the guests WERE LOVING it. They even took videos to send to me because they enjoyed him so much. Having the steel drums was my one must have for the day and I am so glad I found Sterling.

Family Reunion•Reviewed on July 3, 2017•From Franklin Lakes, NJ

My family and I were delighted to be entertained by Sterling C. Sample at our recent pool party/BBQ! Sterling communicated with me prior to the date of our event; he arrived early to set up and then he greeted guests with his steel drum island music. Sterling is an amazing talent and he possesses a wonderful friendly disposition. I highly recommend Sterling - we will surely invite him to come back to play for us again at a future party!!!

Sterling Sample played at my book party yesterday. He arrived on time and gave a rousing performance of his music. He was the life of the party and his singing kept everyone entertained. Several people there said they were also going to hire him and I will be a repeat customer for future events. Professional. Extremely talented pan player. Warm spirit. I would add a sixth star if I could. Highly recommend.
