CLIENT FEEDBACK:
I and all my guests thought Ian was fabulous! He is very talented and has a great personality. Everyone really enjoyed the music and he was very fun and helped to get everyone into the party spirit. I would highly recommend him for any event!

I received so many compliments at our choice of performers at our wedding reception party with many asking Ian's name so they might book him for future events. I would highly recommend him.

Ian Dobson is a consummate performer. He quickly gains the respect of his audience and holds that through out the performance. His technical skills with his instrument, the steel drum is first rate. By itself, Ian’s fluency with his percussion instruments are second to none. But he charts a new path which leaves his audience to a higher musical level. His combination of art and technology brings a third dimension to the small stage. His solo performances are accomplished by a virtual band that projects the presence of legion of musicians. Ian has a stand out act. His CDs and DVDs are very rofessional and a rewarding musical interlude.
We shall have him back.
