Frankie's performance was marvelous - he was perfect for our event (a beachside wedding) and the music was great. He was also a pleasure to deal with - very friendly yet very professional. I'm so glad he was able to play at our wedding - it was just what we were looking for! Frankie played the steel drum (without electrical power) at the beach prior to and during our ceremony, creating a welcoming, celebratory tone for our gathering guests. Then he moved to our reception area indoors and played both the drum and the keyboard. The music selection was very nice and the volume was perfect for conversation and for dancing! An excellent job, Frankie!

Frankie was so easy to work with and made our rehearsal dinner such a special event for our daughters wedding, in fact I did not realize how well the guests at the party got up and danced to the steel drum music of Frankie....everyone loved him!

Frankie was amazing! He did a wonderful job and was very accomidating when we asked him to go back down to the beach to play for sunset. His music was the perfect backdrop for our perfect day! I would reccomend Frankie to ANYONE and will hopefully be able to use him again in the future! Definatly worth every penny and more I could not be happier! Thank you Frankie! You made our special day even better!
