"Hiring the Island Boys was the smartest thing I did for my party -- by far. They set the stage for the event, and filled my backyard with music that transported us to the "Islands".
I heard from others who want to hire them!"

"Jesse of the Island Boys was fantastic. My party was a total success and Jesse provided absolutely the best music for my birthday party - Tropical Nights - Caribbean Style. His music was perfect. I've gotten many phone calls saying that my party was the best that many had ever attended. And, of course, everyone wanted to know how to reach the Island Boys should they want entertainment for their own Island Party! Great!

Birthday Party (Children)
in St Pete Beach, FL
on 05/09/2009
"We were very pleased with the performance and professionalism of Josh (our performer) and Winston his dad, with whom we made arrangements. The music was wonderful - exactly what we wanted. Josh and Winston worked with us on the song list, the duration of the gig, and the special song requests for our daughter's birthday.
The party was so successful, we extended him an hour on the spot and the guests were begging to keep him all night. We would have, but it was Josh's anniversary, so we reluctantly let him go home!
We had a wonderful experience with Josh, very polite, easy going and talented! Great steel drum player! "

"It was truly a pleasure to work with Winston from the Island Boys. They (I used both members of the family) made my daughter's wedding a day to remember. They were professional, punctual and very accommodating with their music.
I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for "a touch of the islands sound" and something just a little bit different than the ordinary.
Kudos to the Island Boys!"

"From first inquiry to the end of his hours of entertainment for our guests and family at the beach wedding ceremony & poolside cocktail hour for my son and our new daughter-in-law, everything was topnotch and so customer focused! Winston arrived early to set up, played wonderfully, giving very special practice & attention to a song that was the couple's postwedding request. Our guests enjoyed the entertainment so much, and we are very grateful the addition to a wedding that was a dream come true! Cannot thank you enough! Mother of the Groom"

Wedding Reception

"I usually find at least one or two things worth a non-5 star rating anytime I give feedback for anything...even though the work or service provided was great, but with this feedback I cannot do it. Across the board, Islandboys helped give our wedding that "something" that made it even better. We asked the player to do a very intricate piece for our ceremony and he pulled it off without a hitch AND without question. At the reception he played and performed masterfully. And this feedback was just his performance. He was also very friendly, personable, and professional. If you want the best, hire these guys!"

They were flexible and worked around the weather by arriving and starting early. They were also very friendly and nice to work with. I would hire them back in a minute. Thanks Island Boys for coming to our fair! "
