Everyone enjoyed the music; they were great. However, the contract read that we could keep them for an extra hour for $100, but they would not let us. They were packing up and left at 9. They need a better contract or should honor the one they have.
Arrived in plenty of time to set up, very friendly and everyone at the event loved the vibe/music.
It was a pleasure to work with Islandboys for a recent staff event. They were quick to communicate and arrived perfectly on time. The music was FANTASTIC! I would highly recommend these professionals for any event. Thank you!
Winston is the perfect steel drum entertainer! Great selection of songs, and nice to work with. Everyone enjoyed the tropical feel the music gave our event! Thanks Winston!
If I could leave a 10 star review I would! Islandboys brought an amazing ambiance to the engagement party we had for our daughter and her fiancé. Jesse is extremely talented and stayed in constant contact to make sure our event entertainment went flawlessly. From classic calypso to modern hits, Jesse catered to all of our guests tastes of music. Hiring Islandboys was the best decision we made for this special occasion. If you are looking for exceptional live entertainment, choose Islandboys and ENJOY!
It was great everyone enjoyed music, thank you for that. You guys were great. I will be recommending you guys again.
Winston was on time and played fantastic music! Super nice guy!

Jesse was on time, professional, and accommodating for the other activities going on with the Ribbon Cutting/Grand Opening. He gave no complaints about the strong sun and warm weather. Great music, too! We highly recommend.
He did a great job performing for our wedding ceremony. Showed up early and was ready to go, worked well with the coordinator and was great during the planning process. Will definitely work with them again! Thank you!
"Jessie" of the Island Boys did a FABULOUS job of entertaining us. Such a talented gentleman and very enthusiatic about his craft and enjoyed explaining the make up of the steel drums and how they work. He arrived in good time, very personable, very accomadating, very patient and once again so very talented. It was easy to see that he loved what he was doing. I would highly recommend him for any venue.
I cannot thank you all enough for coming through last minute to provide steel drum music for our wedding after our original artist came down with Covid. Everyone raved about the music! Thank you for making our wedding so special!!!
The Island Boys communicated with me before the event and arrived early to set up on time, as they promised. The steel pan music was beautifully performed and impressed my guests from the Caribbean. Winston also accommodated a special request for my 9 year old niece to play Happy Birthday on her piano for her Grandma. I highly recommend the Island Boys for any event.
Did not like music
Winston was prompt, courteous, professional and was a fantastic performer. He made the event wonderful.
Winston and his son were great! Showed up early to setup, very polite, great performers.
It was an amazing experience to have Winston play at our wedding. I wish I had booked him for the entire day and not just a couple of hours. If you're on the fence about this do it, do it! You won't be disappointed in your guests will be in awe. We definitely want to have Winston come out again the next time we have a backyard cookout for family and friends!
Island boys were great. Perfect for my grand opening. I will use them again
Would have like to have heard music better. Wind was blowing, so hard to hear.
Phenomenal skill and pleasant demeanor! I felt like we were on a tropical island. I’d highly recommend this artist!
Winston did a great job. He was charming and exceeded expectations! Thank you for helping us have an unforgettable evening.
First hired Josh in Winston 15 years ago for a wedding and was not disappointed and hired them again and everyone absolutely loved it
Played for our Bar's anniversary party - the crowd loved him
Winston was the MVP of our party! He played great music and it truly enhanced the experience for our family and friends. Would definitely recommend and hire again.
We were very happy with the steel drum music Winston provided for our luau-themed fundraiser. It was a great addition to the cocktail hour and in the background during dinner. The only complaint was that he packed up about 15 minutes earlier than we had contracted, so there was some 'dead air' before our program started. Other than that, we heard great things from our guests and hope to have him back next year!
Winston showed up early, played the perfect music for our outdoor event, and even brought additional AV equipment to allow our guests to give speeches. He was kind and professional throughout the whole thing. I highly recommend him - working with him was a breeze.
Winston was amazing. He made our first day of school perfect. The students were greeted with amazing island music as they walked in.
Super glad Winston worked with us through our rain delay. He did a great job for us.
We enjoyed the music that Winston played at our party!
Was on time. Gave a talented performance. Played his heart out!
Wonderful experience, will recommend!
Amazing! Everyone loved the music and Winston was so professional, kind, and courteous. I highly recommend Islandboys!
The Island Boys' steel drum music made our wedding reception truly unique! We loved every bit of their music they played! We had so many compliments how fun and different our reception was and it was because of Winston! He and his son are truly talented and made our reception everything we wanted it to be and more!
Islandboys provided really great music for our luau.
A well done performance by Josh at our party. Everyone loved him and he was super nice. Will definately be hiring him again. :-)
Response from Islandboys:
Everyone at this party was so kind and generous. Had a great time.
