The CalypsoNuts were the perfect addition to our beachside wedding! Everyone had great things to say for their performance and we couldn't have been more pleased!

FestivalReviewed on April 3, 2011From Tuskegee, AL

The performers were spectacular. They were able to truly give the audience a taste of Caribbean steel drum music. They were flexible as to what time in the program they perform. I would definitely hire them again. I loved the professionalism, the perfomance and how they tailored to the audience. It was well done in my book.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on December 8, 2010From Pensacola, FL

They were GREAT. We had such fun with them, an other than the cold weather, I think the night was a big hit. I think you will hear from a couple of those folks for other events because they loved it! Thanks for making Mary's 50th birthday party so successful. Catherine McCullum

Rehearsal DinnerReviewed on July 1, 2012From Rosemary Beach, FL

I booked CalypsoNuts for a BEACH party, they accepted, I paid in full thru Gigmasters and 2 hours before my party I received a call from ANOTHER band saying that CalypsoNuts could not do the party. The new band said they would come but only if I paid them $100.00 more. Sort of felt like I was being held hostage! The new band wanted me to pay them in full and try to get my money back thru gigmasters. I told her no, I would only be able to pay the additional upon arrival. She said she would get the money from CalypsoNuts. Are they working together on this? quote one thing and get another? I would never use Gigmasters again, nor would I reccomment them to anyone!

Hi, here is what actually happened on this gig: I was contacted by GigMasters for this gig, and our bid was accepted. After we spoke, I sent our standard contract and rider which included details about what we needed in place in order to perform on the beach itself. I included a note saying our rider gave the "ins and outs" of what we'd need as far as power and staging". I received the contract back, e-signed. The week of the party, we happened to play another party on the beach itself. While this client tried hard, he had not adhered to the rider, and we had damage to several pieces of gear as a result. I had a bad feeling about this upcoming gig, so
