- Steely Pan was wonderful! He is an excellent musician and entertainer and really jazzed up our party -- I will hire him again and would absolutely recommend him to anyone! -- Kemia Sarraf J, Springfield, IL, 7/4/2008
- He played for our wedding reception. We wanted tropical background music, and Steeley Pan's music was perfect for our event. People could visit, but the music was there, beautiful, tropical...... I believe he passed out several cards to people who enjoyed his music and were interested in him for their event.
Thanks much -- Bryan D, Columbia, IL, 3/14/2009
- Absolutely awesome. He made our wedding day very memorable for ourselves and our guests. Both he and I got many questions about his music and equipment and some people even enquired on hiring him. -- Steve P, Central City, IA, 9/27/2008
- I would book Steely Pan again in a heartbeat. He was absolutely great. He really set the mood. Everyone at our dinner party is still talking about how great he was. I would say he was the icing on the cake. I highly reccomend Tim and can't wait to hear him again. Mary Jo Madison -- Larry M, Peoria, IL, 6/13/2008
- Tim was Great! The party theme was "Jamacian Me Happy". He made the party. One of our members also play in a band. He plays trumpet. He and Steely Pan played a few songs together. They sounded like they had played together for years, although they only knew each other for that evening and had never practiced together. That performance is the mark of a true musician. I would not hesitate to hire Steely Pan again. Many people came up to me and commented how much they enjoyed his music. A true 5 star musician and performer. -- Jim E, Leamington, ON, 6/14/2008
- Steely Pan was top notch. He arrived well before the contracted start time and started setting up immediately. His set added an incredible vibe to our wedding reception. Music is always one of the biggest things that stands out in people's minds about a party and we have received the most compliments about Steely Pan. I would highly recommend him for any function that you want to give an upbeat atmosphere to. -- Will C, Webster Groves, MO, 6/7/2008
- Tim was wonderful to work with and handled all of our last minute requests. The music was great and everyone commented on how fun it made the ambiance. It was a pleasure to work with him. We would definitely book him again.

- Tim was a great addition to our event. Our customers loved the music and our Team Members did too. -- Autumn F, Milwaukee, WI, 4/19/2008
- One member of Steely Pan provided the music for a networking meeting for our Association. The weather was not great but he showed up early and ready to go even though he had a long drive. The Association was thrilled with the music he provided. The music was fantastic and really livened up the meeting. I would recommend Steely Pan to anyone. Many of my members have asked for their information so they could hire them for their own company and personal events. I can not speak highly enough of Steely Pan. -- Kathryn S, Madison, WI, 2/4/2008

- What a wonderful evening Steely Pan provided for our event. We had a Treasure Island theme and his music was the icing on the cake! Everyone raved about his entertainment and wants his name to hire him for their events. He arrived early to set-up and was playing before I asked him to begin. He was professional and friendly to everyone. I would strongly recommend Steely Pan to anyone. -- Bonnie C, Rockford, IL, 3/16/2007

- He made our party! Everyone loved him. -- Elizabeth M, Hopkinsville, KY, 9/15/2007
- Steely Pan did a great job. The ultimate compliment was made by someone who is a native of Trinidad and Tobago and attended the event. She said "I was walking by your hospitality suite and heard the sounds of pan...I came in to enjoy a great performance. It was like being back home in Trinidad". I would not hesitate to hire him for a future event. -- David C, Nashville, TN, 10/25/2007
- Terrific background music for a party....appropriate for a pig roast or luai or any pool party......everyone loved it and I would definitely hire him again!!!! -- Glenda O, Woodstock, IL, 6/24/2007

- Tim is a great performer and very professional. We arrived at the reception for our daughter and he was the setting up. He played during our cocktail hour as guest arrived. It added a special effect
to our summer wedding for our daughter, the guest could nt beleive
their ear's when they saw a live steel drum player ! Thank you Tim !
You will always be on our list of names to recommend to clients and friends.
-- Sharon D, Joliet, IL, 7/10/2009
- Because it was a beach wedding, he really helped set the tone for the wedding. Everyone commented on how it felt like it was a destination wedding rather than right here in Northwest Indiana. And because of the waves and slight wind, one of our fears was that you wouldn't be able to hear the music but that was not a problem at all. -- Judie M, Michigan City, IN, 7/11/2009
