Review by Kenna F.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on January 19, 2010From Tampa, FL

Great experience with UG! As we approached our reception we could hear the music and the fun that our guests were having. We couldn't wait to join the crowd. The music FAR surpassed our expectations and we couldn't have been more pleased with the Urban Gypsies. The music was lively and classy. The Urban Gypsies offer upbeat elegance. They adjust their volume based on the audience's noise level. Perfect for all ages. We decided to buy their CD for one of our party favors. Islay had a great idea...to give the current CD as a favor and then he would mail the new CD to our guests when it is completed. We want to use them again, worth every penny!Kenna and Joel

Commitment CeremonyReviewed on October 4, 2008From Key West, FL

Islay was amazing. He is incredibly talented and was very accommodating. His music created the exact atmosphere we were hoping for o the beach in Key West. As a result, he and his partner Mike made our event special and memorable for all who attended. While I hope to have only one Commitment Ceremony, we will definitely hire Islay again.

Thanksgiving CelebrationReviewed on November 27, 2008From Jacksonville, FL

We had Islay and Mike play at our Thanksgiving celebration for a group of about 30. They were outstanding! The music was wonderful and they were very pleasant and accommodating. I definitely recommend them and should the occasion present itself, we will definitely book them again.

Private PartyReviewed on March 6, 2009From Palm Beach, FL

Islay Rodriguez was an excellent choice for our party. He was easy to deal with, arrived on time, made good choices of music and tailored his music to the mood of the crowd...softer and low key as guests were arriving becoming more energetic and lively as the crowd got more lively. He is very talented and we had several compliments from guest on his music. We would definitely have him again and would enthuiastically recommend him to friends.

Corporate FunctionReviewed on February 11, 2008From Lake Buena Vista, FL

Here are comments that were emailed to me (dinner coordinator) following an Annual Dinner hosted by Senior Execs from our company and attended by some of our key customers: "The guitar player was the perfect accompaniment. Not too loud. We had some very nice compliments from our customers. Great find. His music was just the right addition to set the mood for the room" "To all: Great dinner event! Thanks for everyones hard work. By the way, the guitar player was excellent and not too loud" When the opportunity presents itself, we will request Islay again. C.G.

Anniversary PartyReviewed on December 6, 2007From Tavares, FL

Islay is awesome! We hired him to perform at a family 50th Anniversary celebration, and he did not disappoint! Many of the attendees requested his contact info for their future parties. He's gifted, professional, charming and personable, we could not have asked for a better entertainer. Thank you so much Islay!

We were very impressed with how talented Islay is. Our guests commented on how much his music added to the party, they were pleasantly surprised at the end when they discovered their parting gift was his CD. We would love to hire him again. His music is beautiful.

Corporate FunctionReviewed on October 25, 2007From Fort Lauderdale, FL

Islay had performed for a corporate function for us(a Fortune 200 company)for the first time a couple of years ago. We were pleased to have had the opportunity to do so again. This time it was an event on a large private yacht. He was able to successfully work out the difficult logistics to get to our venue. Islay is a very talented musican. We would gladly have him again at our next event.

WeddingReviewed on March 3, 2007From Miami, FL

Islay was a fantastic performer. He impressed all of my guest to the point that even the vendors approached me to compliment me on my choice for a musician. People literally said "WOW - he's really talented!!" Having Islay play for the cocktail hour of my wedding reception was truly one of the highlights of the entire event. Thank you, Islay!!
