Jason and crew were very accomodating for our corporate waterfront party. It set the mood perfectly for an island themed summer party.

Community Event•Reviewed on June 11, 2006•From Pembroke, MA
We hired Jason to perform at our annual event with "An Island Adventure" theme. He was the perfect addition to our day. With over 500 guests in attendance, Jason's steel drumming provided entertainment and serenity to a crowd that included many adults with developmental disabilites. I especially liked that he allowed curious onlookers (children and adults) the chance to try out his drum!
Jason was also very accomodating, having to work around an awards ceremony and sweepstakes drawing. I would definitely recommend him for anyone looking for a steel drummer.

He was on time to set up and ready to play for the event. His manner was very professional and his dress was clean and tidy. All of the guests loved him and the music.
My wedding was on the rainiest day this summer and his music definitely lightened the atmosphere and made people not focus on how wet it was outside of the tent. I will definitely use him again.
Thanks Jason!

Jason Roseman and the Tropical Gems performed at my daughter's wedding in Newport on Friday, May 19, 2006. We had such a good time! I found Jason and the band members to be highly professional and extremely talented. More than that, their presence was a wonderful addition to our party. My friends have been calling all weekend to tell me what a wonderful time they had and how much they enjoyed the music! We danced all night.

Wedding•Reviewed on April 22, 2006•From Mashpee, MA
We just got married at the Popponessett Inn on Cape Cod, on 4-22-06. WE hired just Jason Roseman solo to play- and he far exceeded our expectations!
He was extremely accomodating. He played for longer than a typical set in order to accomodate our dinner times, and coordinating with the DJ. In addition, he was always accessible for questions through e-mail, and was pleasant to deal with.
I can't say enough about his performance. He really helped us capture the ambiance we were going for, and he played La Isla Bonita- my favorite Madonna song. The song choices were a perfect mix for the crowd, and the venue!
We'd like to have another party- just to have him play!
Thanks so much Jason for making our wedding so special!!

I hired this band with only the information posted on their website to go on. I couldn't have been happier with my choice. They were everything I had hoped for and more. I only hope I have more occasions to use them again!

Jason was able to take my ideas for my wedding & reception and make them reality. He and his band worked with my wedding planner and was able to iron out any issues about the event making it better than I could have imagined. My guests were all very impressed and enjoyed themselves emensely. The kids also loved him and his band. THANK YOU!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 17, 2005•From Barrington, RI
Two years ago, my husband said that he wanted a Steel Drum player for his 50th birthday party. Jason Roseman was exactly what he had in mind. The music was very relaxing and helped to create an enjoyable atmosphere for the party. Many of the guests commented on how wonderful the music was. Working with Jason was great. He was very professional, available for questions and working out the details, and very accomodating. I would highly recommend Jason for any function and would without a doubt hire him again. Thank you Jason!

Wedding•Reviewed on May 21, 2005•From Kennebunkport, ME
My wife and I were married in Kennebunkport, Maine on May 21, and Jason provided steel drum music for our cocktail hour before the reception. His music set the perfect scene for the outdoor/oceanfront location we had chosen. Jason is extremely professional, was very easy to coordinate with, and most importantly, sounded GREAT. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a steel drummer, thanks Jason!

Jason was a pleasure to work with. He was on time, played a great event and made it special. At the end he impressed everyone by letting the kids try the steel pan drum. Much appreciated Jason! Thanks again.

Jason took part in our surprise wedding on December 4, 2004 and he was magnificent. He was extremely accomodating, due to the fact that most of the ceremony was shooting from the hip and not really planned out. I spoke with him right before the party with what we wanted to do and it turned out great. Jason is a awesome musician and I would recommend him and his band to anyone, anytime! Thanks again Jason.

It was a wonderful summer night...the stars were out and we had several friends gathered. It would have been a less than ordinary party wothout the festive sounds of Jason and the Tropical Gems! EVERYONE loved them...they set a fun mood and made people comfortable. There was dancing and laughing and the party became memorable because of thier talents. These guys were so relaxed and professional that I just enjoyed my own party as if I were a guest and they played right to the end despite threatening weather, that approached at the nights end. I just wish I could throw another party like this in the winter - just for a FEEL of summer!!! They are wonderful! Treat yourself!

I can't say enough about Jason Roseman, He was Phenomenal!
We hired Jason (accompanied by a guitarist) to play during the coctail hour of our Carribbean themed post-wedding reception. That day was a bit stressful for me, I was doing most of the decorating and unfortunately I was running behind. So much so, that I arrived 40 mins late to my own cocktail hour. To top it off, the chef told us that dinner was also running a 1/2 hour late. I aked my husband to see is Jason could stay a little longer then originally planned. As it turned out my husband never had to ask. Jason sensed that there was a bit of a delay and just kept on playing until our dinner was ready. He is a true profesional. I have to say it was the most enjoyable time of the night for me. It brought me back to Jamaica, where my Husband and I were married.
Jason was a huge hit, Everyone loved them! Absolutely loved them!!!!
I can't wait to have another event where I can hire Jason and all of his Tropical Gems.
Thank You Again :)

Jason and his band played for our beach wedding adding just the right music to round out the festive, laid back mood for our day. In planning for the date, Jason was very professional in his communications, timely on his follow-up and his band arrived on time and set up before the guests arrived so as not to disrupt anyone.
During the day they played a great mix of music and played along with some guests' special requests and accompaniments. Jason is a seasoned musician and has a vast knowledge of steel drum music.
We were a little nervous about finding our band over the internet but we were incredibly happy about how it all worked out.
