The band you choose will make or break your event. The Caribbean Crew is the very best! We are one of the most frequently hired Caribbean Bands in the country (over 200 shows per year) and we are the five-time national winners (2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 & 2011) of the Gigmasters Rising Star Award for "Top Steel Drum Band" in North America. We are also the national winners of the 2011 Gigmasters Rising Star Award for "Top Corporate Event Entertainer" in North America. We have also been voted "Best Reggae Act" by the Orlando Weekly Magazine. As a result, you may get cheaper quotes from less accomplished bands. However, the quality and professionalism will not be the same as The Caribbean Crew.
Based in Orlando, The Caribbean Crew is one of the most frequently hired live bands and wedding bands in Florida. During the wedding ceremony, our steel drum player can perform traditional wedding music on the steel drums, such as the Bridal Chorus, Canon in D and the Wedding March. Please check out our website showcasing traditional ceremony music performed on the steel drum. If you prefer something non-traditional, the steel pan player can perform a nice reggae selection for the processional and an upbeat calypso selection for the recessional. The lead singer can even serve as MC and take care of the formal introductions and announcements.
We also provide Caribbean Music and Island Music for corporate events, conventions, holiday parties, Christmas parties, house parties, pool parties, birthday parties, anniversaries, retirement parties, graduation parties, fundraisers, christenings, or any other special occasion.
The Caribbean Crew is well known for their high-energy and interactive performances. The musicians are all from the islands, giving you an authentic, Caribbean sound. While on stage, the Crew teaches different dances to the crowd, as well as many other 'follow-me' routines. The band is very professional, both in their attire, and approach to every event. The Caribbean Crew always arrives early and starts on time!
The Caribbean Crew offers a wide variety of original and cover music, from traditional reggae and calypso, to modern day soca and dancehall. We also perform some Top 40 hits, folk songs, Jimmy Buffet selections, traditional wedding ceremony music and other popular wedding music and wedding songs. During the holidays, we can perform traditional Christmas Carols and other Christmas Music and Holiday Music on the steel drums. The Caribbean Crew can be as small as a solo steel drum player, or as large as a five-piece live band. It all depends on the size of the event and the available budget. All acts include a steel pan player, which is something that your guests will really like.
We have also performed at several Colleges and Universities. These include: Bethune-Cookman University, Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, Georgia State University, Orlando Culinary Academy, Ringling College of Art and Design, Rollins College, Savannah College of Arts and Design, Semester at Sea, South Dakota State University, Stetson University, The University of Central Florida, University of Florida, University of South Florida, University of Tampa, Valdosta State University, Tallahassee Community College, Palm Beach State College and Webber International University.
The Caribbean Crew travels and is willing to perform anywhere in the world! Some of the cities in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina that the band services on a regular basis include: Orlando, Lakeland, Tampa, Palm Harbor, Dunedin, Treasure Island, St. Pete, Clearwater, Anna Maria Island, Sarasota, Sand Key, Siesta Key, Longboat Key, Ft. Myers, Bonita Springs, Captiva Island, Naples, Marco Island, Florida Keys, Key West, Key Largo, Islamorada, Key Biscayne, Miami, Miami Beach, South Beach, Fort Lauderdale,Singer Island, West Palm Beach, Palm Beach, Jupiter,Port St Lucie, Fort Pierce, Vero Beach,Melbourne, Cocoa Beach, New Smyrna Beach, Daytona Beach, Ormond Beach, Palm Coast, St Augustine, Ponte Vedra Beach, Fernandina Beach, Jacksonville, Jacksonville Beach, Amelia Island, St George Island, Gainesville, St Simons Island, Jekyll Island, Savannah, Atlanta
and Hilton Head.

Performances have taken us as far as Denver, South Dakota, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Atlanta and throughout Florida and the Caribbean. No matter what the occasion, or where it may be, The Caribbean Crew welcomes the opportunity to perform at your event!

"Our Congress and Expo audience thoroughly enjoyed The Caribbean Crew. Creig and the band were a pleasure to work with both before and during the event. The music was fun and engaging, and Creig was more than willing to help us announce our raffle and silent auction information. I would book them again happily, and will recommend them to others.

"What a pleasure is was to have the Caribbean Crew at my event. Creig thought of the smallest details that I overlooked to ensure that the evening would go off without a hitch. The performers were wonderful / personable and tailored the music to the guests (even the most obscure song requests were known by the band and happily played). I can honestly say that the band made for a perfect day!!!!!"

"Played for our wedding on Oct. 8th 2011. 100% satisfied. My wife and I cannot think of one thing we would have them do differently. The group was very professional and sounded great. They we also in touch with our crowd and played the right kinds of music at the right times to keep our party having a great time. We had major rain threatening our outdoor venue, but they we're totally cool about it, played right up until it started to pour.

"Noel and the entire band were most accommodating and talented musicians. They were fun to work with and the guests loved them!
I had told Creig that we were not expecting the guests to dance. I was so wrong as after dinner they had everyone dancing. And, as requested, their music during the dinner hour was most accommodating allowing the guests to converse and enjoy some wonderful Caribbean music, Jimmy Buffett songs, Bob Marley and a few other select pieces! THANK YOU to the Caribbean Crew! We hope to use your services again!"
