Sue, Thank you very much for your generosity, hospitality and attention to detail with your requested selections and flexibility with the order of requests. The little ones made me smile as they were dancing and having themselves a wonderful time. The environment both internal and external were picturesque which made for a destination venue that must be experienced to believe. I'd love to work with you again. Best Regards to you and your family, Sue. Mahalo Nui Loa!
Vince was amazing in his song tribute to my father. We had a Hawaiian Celebration of Life for my father with a beautiful accompaniment both during the chapel service and afterward for food and storytelling of my father’s Life. Bruddah Vince was professional, warm, friendly and his playing and song were perfect and beautiful. I would use his skillful playing and song over and over again!

Kristin, Leo's Celebration of Life was a touching event! I listened to the different testimonies of him. He seems like such a great guy that I wished I had an Uncle like him. Everyone was so kind and courteous. Several people came up and complimented about the music. I'd love to perform again at future events for your family and friends. Mahalo and A Hui Hou!
Bruddah Vince is an amazing entertainer who will make your event transform into a magical evening that brings Hawai’i to your doorstep. His vocal and multi-instrument (i.e., guitar and ukulele) abilities is truly one of a kind and very special. Bruddah Vince is kind, professional, and accommodating making the planning process incredibly fun and easy. I would absolutely recommend him to take your event or special occasion to the next level.

Sheri, Thank you kindly for being such a wonderful host and for extending my time. Lou’s Birthday Party was a success! Many people came up and complimented about the music. It truly felt like we were all on O'ahu in Honolulu harbor by Ala Moana…hehe. Thanks again for dinner and for being attentive. I really appreciate that. Please consider me for future events for your family friends. Mahalo Sheri and Aloha!
Our End of Summer Luau was a huge success, thanks in large part to the wonderful ukulele performance. The lively and joyful music set the perfect ton for the afternoon, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that everyone enjoyed. Bruddah Vince's talent and energy truly brought the spirit of aloha to our event. We look forward to having him back for future events.

Denisse, Thank you for working with me all the way through the administrative hurdles. The 'Musical Moments' event turned out great as the seniors in attendance were observant and receptive. I enjoyed playing at the community center and look forward to another future event. Big Mahalo Denisse and Mahalo Nui Loa!
Bruddah Vince and Uncle Lucky did a fantastic job with the music at our house Luau party.
They entertained almost the whole time they were there and sound superb.
Vince supplied us with his extensive song list before the event and we were able to pick a few out
that we really wanted to hear. He fill out the rest with the rest of his set list with great choices.
Highly recommended!

Michael, Your Summer Dinner Party was a success as you selected your favorite Island Hits and let us entertain your guests with our favorites as well. Thank you for the refreshments and for allowing us to add the Island element to your event. We'd love to perform for you again. Mahalo and 'A Hui Hou!'
Vince and Lucy were the absolute best!! I could not have asked for anyone better! Not only did they arrive early (which is always a nice weight off the shoulders) but they were so accommodating to our residents here. One of our ladies wanted to do a hula dance and brought her CD and CD player with her, and without hesitation they helped hook it up to their speakers so that she could perform. They also took a request and sung Happy Birthday to another resident. Their voices were amazing, the sound was awesome and they truly helped bring our luau party to life! I will definitely be booking these guys again! Thank you both so much Vince and Lucy!!

Katrina, What a journey! It started early in the year with your interest in our services for your community who loves to party. We kept in contact, crossed the t's, dotted the i's and addressed concerns as needed. Uncle Lucky and I had a wonderful time accommodating your guests, singing happy birthday, sharing the stage with the hula dancers, and allowing us to serenade all in attendance. I'm so glad we made your party that much better. We're are happy to be your new Hawaiian Band for your annual Luau. Mahalo Katrina and Aloha!
Terrific Performance, would highly recommend. He definitely captured the vibe of the audience and everyone left happy.

Tiffany, I had a great time performing at your establishment, '2145 Eats'! The staff and service were impeccable, the growing audience participated, were enjoying themselves and you were kind and great to deal with from the get go. I'd love to perform again for you at your business, Tiffany. Aloha!
We liked Bruddah Vince so much we hired him again the next week to play for family. Bruddah Vince was reliable and responsive. In my search for a Ukulele player for a proposal I was left without response from many advertising on Gigsalad. When I reached out to Bruddah Vince he immediately responded and I was easily able to tell him everything I wanted and needed from him as we emailed/texted back and forth. The actual performance was amazing. Bruddah Vince created a wonderful ambiance that completely transformed the proposal. Frankly, if I hadn't had the confidence in Bruddah Vince, I would have had to go with an entirely different proposal plan. Bruddah Vince's provided that Hawaiian vibe with his smooth, relaxing voice and nice ukulele play. He sounds much better in person than youtube! If you need someone you can rely on, hire Bruddah Vince. If you need someone to create a beautiful island/ukulele/hawaiian vibe, hire Bruddah Vince.

John, working with you is a joy as you are quickly responsive, courteous and thorough. You will be remembered as a "Hopeless Romantic" because of your imagination, creativity, and kindness that went into your proposal effort. I've never experienced such a class act thus far...you really set a standard which will be an envy to many. I also enjoyed playing for your family. Mahalo for your kind words and I'll be seeing you at the next event. Mahalo Nui Loa!

Abby, Your event had an awesome turnout and the audience was spectacular. Thank you for having me over to perform for your dinner party at Peltzer Winery. I look forward to our next event. Aloha, Abby!
Bruddah Vince embodies the REAL aloha spirit. He plays classic Hawaiian folk and pop as well as the few Hawaiian songs that most haoles know. He was receptive to requests from our guests and was very interactive with our guests. If you’re looking for the real Hawaiian party vibe Bruddah Vince is your man. He is super professional, accommodating and more than reasonable in his rates.

David, Thank you very much for the opportunity in playing for you and your guests!
I enjoyed myself while performing for your kind crowd. The requests came and I played
the ones I could and made notes of the ones to learn for the future. Your efforts in
organizing the event and all the cooking you did didn't go un-noticed. Your food was
"Ono" (tasty) ! Best wishes to you and your Ohana and please keep me in mind for future events as you see fit. Aloha!
Vince showed up on time music was fantastic and performed exceptionally well. I was so happy I hired Vince. My guest enjoyed the Hawaiian music. He also sang a beautiful bday song. I would definitely hired him again. The so much it was great time

I enjoyed playing for you and your network of business associates at Roy's I'd love to play for you folks again. Aloha & A Hui Hou!
Bruddah Vince is the absolute BEST! We booked him for my father-in-law’s memorial service. My father-in-law passed from cancer before he could make it out to his first trip ever to Hawaii. So, we wanted to bring the beauty of the islands to his service. And boy, did Bruddah Vince do just that! Stellar performance throughout! And he was so accommodating! I had pre-selected songs for the service. He went out of his way to learn the songs and even performed them with so much feeling and emotion. He had the entire congregation in tears!
Bruddah Vince, thank you again for bringing so much happiness to a very sad event. You helped us envision our dad finally resting in paradise. Thank you for doing what you do!

Response from Island Stylin' with Bruddah Vince:
Aloha Jyll, You're very welcome! I admit it was challenging not getting too emotional
with your song choices while performing these selections. I even got a little teary-eyed. Even the minister was surprised at the selections. Everyone was so kind and asked for business cards. I really enjoyed playing for you and your loved ones and I hope to play for you folks again at some point in the future. Mahalo Nui Loa, Jyll!
He brought our event to life with his outstanding performance and made it a night to remember for a long time. We could not have been more impressed with the work he did from showing up early to get an idea of the event to the amazing songs and ukulele playing he did. I would highly recommend Vince to perform at your next event! -

It’s as if I IZ was playing at our event (as so many guest told us afterwards). Vince even learned a new song just for us, Ahi Wela/Twinkle Twinkle Little Star by IZ, and sang it so amazingly! He was the main attraction and what brought our Baby Shower together! I can’t thank him enough for what an amazing job he did!!🫶🤙👏👏👏

I'm always seeing new & different entrees where you also add spins on your bakery / desserts, taking your creativity to soaring heights. Thank you for hosting me at your wonderful gem of a restaurant, I am truly honored. A Hui Hou!
Bruddah played at my mother's memorial service the other day and he was absolutely superb. Besides arriving an hour before the start, he was willing to make some additions to songs to play the night before. But most importantly, the playing was superb, clear, and with his amplifier equipment was highly professional. His playing and singing of the Over the Rainbow / What a Wonderful World medley along with others such as Beautiful Kauai, Aloha 'Oe and other traditional Hawaiian songs was top notch. I cannot recommend anyone more highly as Bruddah to play at an event!

The turnout was great, the activities you had for the keiki were engaging and the Ube Horchata was absolutely delicious! I look forward to another performance for you folks. It would be a pleasure! See you next time. Aloha!
I contacted Bruddah Vince just a few days before our retirement party at a large estate in Beverly Hills, when another performer I had originally hired dropped out at the last minute. What could have been a disaster turned out to be a blessing, as Bruddah Vince was extremely easy, professional, and pleasant to work with, and he provided the perfect vibes we were seeking. His dreamy voice, expert ukulele playing, and great song selection added so much beauty to our night. We all felt transported to the islands for a few hours, and the party would not have been the same without him. He was very agreeable to every request, including taking a Covid test upon arrival, which we really appreciated since some of our guests are high risk.

Bruddah Vince is a talented musician that brought the Hawaiian islands to our event with his delightful presentation. His punctuality and friendliness brought a sense of ease to our event that meshed well with our relaxed ALOHA atmosphere.
