CAISO WAS GREAT TO DEAL WITH. ARRIVED ON TIME AND PLAYED STRAIGHT THRU TO CONTRACTED TIME. EXCELLENT MUSIC FOR BEACH PICNIC. VERY FRIENDLY AND POLITE. ALL OUR GUESTS LOVED THEIR MUSIC. WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THEM BACK FOR ANOTHER GIG IN OUR COMMUNITY.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 20, 2014•From Great Falls, VA

This band made our party very special. For some reason several of our guests arrived early.These guys were flexible--no haughty attitude -- and made our evening so much more fun. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

I would actually give 5 stars for this performance if I could. Michael was fabulously talented, professional, and truly a nice person. He arrived early and never once took a break! He was constantly moving and entertaining our crowd. I will definitely schedule him again!

I Just want to say thanks to Mike and the Caiso steel band crew. We had a carribean theme party and it was a blast. The steel band artist provided by Mike was the best I cant explain how great he was. He made everybody happy and feel like they were on a island dream vacation. I highly recomend the Caiso Band for any event and I will be calling them again on our next party. Thanks again you guys are the best.

Cruise Ship Event•Reviewed on April 13, 2011•From Edgewood, MD

Mike and his band were very professional. We have never used the internet for our appreciation dinners. I was very confident that we would not be disappointed and never worried about if they would show or not. Actually he was the one who kept contact with us which made the task of the entertainment a lot easier. The nicest part was that they were very friendly and came early and did a wonderfule job. We were very pleased.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 1, 2014•From Stafford, VA

We thoroughly enjoyed Mike. Amazing performer who played the entire time to spite encouraging him to break for a meal. He was extremely talented and personable. Perfect music for our Caribbean birthday party. All my guests loved him and I would highly recommend him and will definitely call on him again!

College Reunion•Reviewed on May 3, 2010•From College Park, MD

Mike and the gang are extremely professional! They showed up early and accomodated our last minutes location switch due to rain. The background music they played definitely enhanced our college reunion event. Mike was very prompt in returning my calls & emails prior to the event. I would highly recommend CAISO for your next event!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 6, 2011•From Front Royal, VA

Michael King kept in contact with us as the date of the party approached. We had no play list; the music they selected was familiar to our older crowd, yet with a calypso twist that was perfect. All four musicians were very friendly. They made the honored birthday girl feel special. We could not have found a better steel drum band!

Hey Chuck B, Thank you for your feedback. We really enjoyed performing at the Bday Celebration. Your friend and family are really nice people. Mike K

Rehearsal Dinner•Reviewed on July 29, 2011•From Woodbridge, VA

WOW! This band is AMAZING! They played for our son's rehearsal dinner and they made the party! Everyone was up dancing. Throughout the evening people kept asking how we found such an incredible band. They couldn't believe we found them on line -- nor could we! They are talented musicians who were there to entertain us and make sure everyone was having fun. They were easy to work with: very professional, yet also fun and helpful. We love this band! We will definitely hire them if we ever need a steel drum band again...and we're trying to think of excuses to have another party just to dance with them again! :-)

Private Party•Reviewed on September 14, 2009•From Annapolis, MD

CAISO were quite outstanding. They arrived on time, set up with no fuss, started to play the instant a guest appeared, and were a great hit with everyone who attended the party. I recommend them highly and would enthusiastically engage them again for an event.

Awards Night Party•Reviewed on May 19, 2009•From Marriottsville, MD

Wonderful experience, delightful music, great show. Arrived early to set up, started on time, very accomodative. Highly recommend to all. In fact, the Golf Club manager asked them to play in future awards events at his Club.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 6, 2012•From Upper Marlboro, MD

They were just right for the wedding reception over-50 crowd. They're music was something that everyone could dance to. As the evening wore on, they got better.

Restaurant Event•Reviewed on October 4, 2011•From Middleburg, VA

What a difference having CAISO SteelBand perform at our event made to our Caribbean-themed rehearsal dinner. It was a large event, and they played beautifully, also happily playing any special requests. Their music really "made" the atmosphere. They were open to changes I made in timing and length of performance as we firmed up our plans for the dinner. During the evening, they were friendly, but always behaved very professionally. They were well-groomed and appropriately dressed, and my event would not have been even half as much fun without them! I am pleased beyond words!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 18, 2010•From Dickerson, MD

Overall experience: awesome! These guys totally rock! Many of the guests at our wedding have specifically raved about the performance. We were so grateful that they learned The Rainbow Connection for us. Their arrangement was terrific! Thanks for everything, C.A.I.S.O.! Dave & Shani

It was certainly an early morning for our business function, but CAISO was on time and ready to go! We loved the music and it was perfect for our event! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The band was great! They arrived on time, played wonderfully, and were pleasant to desal with ... what more could you ask for?

Rehearsal Dinner•Reviewed on October 9, 2011•From Cambridge, MD

Caiso Steel Band was amazing. They made the rehearsal dinner so much fun. When I booked them I just thought they would be background music, but they were so good that everyone got up and danced for a large part of the evening. Michael was so nice and easy to work with. He even honored my request to show us how to do a line dance that we wanted him to play. I would definately have them at another party and I would highly reccommend them for your party.

Celebration•Reviewed on June 6, 2011•From Queenstown, MD

CAISO SteelBand played at a crab feast we had on the night prior to our wedding! They were so fun to watch and really got into the groove. They were professional at all times, and Mike answered all questions via email promptly. Totally easy to work with and lovely to listen to- would definitely recommend them!! THANKS GUYS!!!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on August 1, 2011•From Washington, DC

CAISO performed at the cocktail hour of my wedding. They were phenomenal! Several of our guests said that CAISO played a large part in making it the best cocktail hour they have ever been to and it was a highlight of the wedding. My family is from the Caribbean, and we had to force one of my aunts to take her seat in the reception hall, because she wanted to keep listening to the band. If you're looking for a great steel drum band, look no further. CAISO is it!
