Grand Opening•Reviewed on April 23, 2018•From San Diego, CA
We had Patrick perform at one of our New Home Grand Opening. He was on time, accommodating, professional and a phenomenal steel drum player. People would comment that when they would first walk in the home, they thought it was a recording of steel drum playing, and they were blown away that it was live! I would highly recommend him!

We fully enjoyed the entertainment Patrick provided at my dad's surprise party. He played the style of music we requested, and was so friendly. The guests all commented about the music and how it was the perfect level to be heard yet allow for conversation. Many people from the party asked for his information. We definitely would recommend him to others looking for a steel drum player. Thank you Patrick!
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 17, 2014•From San Diego, CA
Patrick played at my wedding and I wouldn't change a thing! Not only was he professional and prompt, he was beyond accomodating in offering options and also coming up with new songs to play. He sent me a lot of options, told me what was most requested, most popular and he even went out of his way to learn new songs that he hadnt done before. All of our guests remarked on how wonderful the music was and how lovely an atmosphere he created. He arrived an hour early and even watched over the ceremony site and setup before the guests started to arrive and while I was getting changed. He gave us a copy of the music on CD and cute keychain favors. Thank you Patrick!

We hired Pat to provide Steel Drum music for our wedding ceremony & following cocktail hour. He was on time, reasonably priced and created the laid back island vibe we were looking for. Some wedding guests were skeptical at first, but Pat's version of Canon in D & the Bridal March were just as beautiful and solemn as any string ensemble and twice as rich & robust as any PA system playback of a recorded track. Everyone loved it! Pat was cool & fun and his music was awesome. Were so glad we hired him & highly recommend him to anyone looking to add live music to their special event. We can't wait to plan another event so we can hire him again.

Patrick Burke was amazing. He is extremely talented, and had great ideas when I asked for recommendations of songs to play at my wedding. He always got back to me via email or by phone in a timely manner, and did an absolutely wonderful job at my wedding!

Patrick and the band played at a charity golf tournament that we were particiapting in. They were on time and dressed appropriately for the occasion. The music was great! They sounded very good and we got several compliments on the band. Patrick was very helpful, accommodating and was easy to deal with. I would definitely book them again and recommend them to others looking for a great island/steel drum band!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 23, 2010•From Solana Beach, CA
Patrick is great - we listened to him performing solo at a local site and immediately confirmed him to play at our birthday party at our home. Patrick suggested that we include Jim Gibson (guitar and vocals) to perform with him - a fantastic recommendation that enriched our musical entertainment greatly. And, after the party was officially over, Patrick and Jim joined with the remaining guests and provided song and piano music for our enjoyment. I would engage Patrick and Jim again in a heart beat!

Patrick was a joy to work with. He made our hectic planning for a large event so easy! I definitely would not only recommend Patrick to others, I would use him again. He's talented, kind and very professional. We enjoyed him greatly at our event.
Anniversary Party•Reviewed on November 15, 2007•From San Diego, CA
Patrick was wonderful! He was so professional and accomodating. Our event took place at a San Diego County Court House therefore his music required a certain level of tact and respect regarding the noise level... and Patrick was "right on!" He was a hit, he sounded fabulous and I received numerous positive comments from those who attended about his music/talent(and they asked for his business card to use him for their future events)! THANKS PAT...we will use you again in the near future!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 14, 2008•From Chula Vista, CA
I hired Patrick for a birthday party and never once had any negative issues with him. He arrived early, introduced himself to me and my father, and set up. He played well, and over the course of the night and the following days I received many compliments on his music and the wonderful atmosphere it provided. It was perfect for our event, and would definitely hire him again.
Baby Shower•Reviewed on October 20, 2007•From San Diego, CA
There was a 80% feedback from all of the guest commenting on how much they enjoyed Patrick and his music. He was very professional, prompt and talented. We weren't sure what kind of music to have for a couples shower but when he first started playing, we knew we made the right choice.
We will definitely be booking him in the near future.
Grand Opening•Reviewed on June 16, 2007•From Solana Beach, CA
Patrick was great. He was on time and fully self contained, meaning he didn't need us for anything more than "where do I set up?" I highly recommend Patrick if you want that cool island sound for your event. He was also faced with a challenging community member issues which he handled with style and grace, which was much appreciated. Great job.
