What to Expect
I can perform a wide variety of music singing & playing the Steel Drum simultaneously, which is a very difficult skill, taking me over 10 years to master. However, where I’m at my best is performing my Caribbean music of Reggae & Soca. So if you want to have a Caribbean dance party, or just a groovy vibe by the pool or Beach side, or just that all round Caribbean Island feel, I’m the perfect guy for the job.

Additional Booking Notes
My stage set-up is very simple & basic, I have all my mics, stands & instruments, including speakers & amplifiers, so all I would require is electrical power. For a Beach setting where there’s no electrical power, I have a portable battery powered speaker & amplification unit. However, for far travels via air, I would require a amplification unit with speakers.
