I’ve been attending various events over the years with Gerry & Michelle. Whether it’s a dance party, a wedding, funeral or birthday celebration, they always leave the crowd wanting more!
Response from DNGOLÉ:
Anne-Marie! Thank you so much! It gives us joy to know that you remember our impact!
I contracted DNGOLE to provide music for my father’s 100th birthday celebration. Open house from 1.00 pm. I mainly saw them serenading my father with some golden oldies. But they quickly had everyone on their feet with moves you could only just imagine. Our Celebration Gathering quickly turned into a lively backyard party. The mix of ages presented no challenges for the charm, rhythm, and range of Michelle and Gerry. The dancing continued until late evening. How could lit not!
Dngole was: Professional to deal with. Arrived early. Flawless set up. Excellent sound quality at perfect level. Great engagement with the crowd. Sweet harmonious voices. Wide selection of top tunes/genres through the ages. Flexible and responsive. Our guests loved them.
We could not ask for more! Thank You DNGOLE!
Response from DNGOLÉ:
Margaret! Thank you for a splendid review! We love you back and can’t wait to see you again! 🥰🥰🥰
Michelle and Jerry filled our house with so much music of all genres. They did everything from back in time pop and dance music, to Caribbean reggaoe and calypso music, to pop rock with the flexibility to go from an intimate duet to a full band sound - just the twoo of them. They also provided DJ music in-between their sets and kept us engaged for hours. They are very professional - arrived and set up on time and ready to go at the prescribed time. We enjoyed them so much, we requested more time with them, and they obliged for a very, very reasonable additional fee until they had to depart to their next engagement. You will not go wrong with Dngole.
Response from DNGOLÉ:
Dear Michelle
We truly appreciate you taking time to send your review and look forward to spending time again!
DNGOLE are absolutely fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed their music for several hours at a very special birthday party. We didn't want them to stop! We didn't want to sit down! They played and sang to so many soca favourites! I would highly recommend them for a private or corporate event!
Response from DNGOLÉ:
Wow! Hi Kathy, thank you so much for taking the time to review our band! Hope to see you again sometime.

Three vocalists, one steelpan musician who also plays guitar.. recorded tracks and music from multiple genres from every era. Essentially, expect nothing but a lot of fun, laughs, great memories, high vibrations and a really good time.
We are also very open to working with your budget to provide quality entertainment at your event.
DNGOLÉ (pronounced DING-GO-LAY) is a small combo of music and fun-loving friends who each boasts a wealth of performing experience on stage, studio, living rooms, patios - wherever the music takes us.
Based in the Greater Toronto Area, with origins in Trinidad and Tobago, our repertoire is a true reflection of the multicultural, multi-ethnic heritage of our twin-island nation. Our influences come from every part of the world and we are always ready to embrace newfound music genres. Yet, we will always retain that warmth of the islands that Caribbean folk are extremely proud of. You'll feel it in our haunting harmonies, in the sway of our bodies as we perform the warmest melodies. As proud nationals of Trinidad and Tobago, we strive to feature the steelpan in all of our appearances.
DNGOLÉ is: Gerry Williams, Suzy Lewis, Mickey Maharaj and Michelle Walker!
Spend a few hours with DNGOLÉ and you just might be booking your Caribbean vacation before you get home!
More than the music, ask Michelle about reaching other acts to make your event shine even brighter. With a wide ranging network of artists in every sense, we can help you find stilt dancers, limbo dancers, African and Afro-Caribbean performers, steel orchestras, and the like.
We look forward with excitement to making great memories at your event. Can't wait to hear from you.
