Coming from Trinidad (birthplace of the steel drum), I have VERY high expectations of anyone that offers services to play! Adrian came to our business holiday party and MADE THE EVENT! I even threw him for a loop by having two other instruments there and he did not skip a beat. Highly recommend, and will have him back in the future!

October 6, 2025Had a great time with Dylan's Steel Band at our event!
We hired the Dylan's Steel Band for our event - Adrian was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire planning process. On the night of our event, the band played a great selection of songs, and the crowd had a blast. We had approximately 500 people at our event. I would absolutely book them again!

September 3, 2025Oh What a Band!!
We hired Dylan’s Steel Band for a Jamaican themed anniversary party. Not only did they arrive early to set up, they were very professional, friendly and accommodating. Not to mention SUPER talented! We totally look forward to hiring them again in the future and recommend to all of our family and friends. Working with them was such a nice experience. Highly recommend

July 17, 2025Fantastic evening with Adrian playing the steel drum
We had a birthday party for my husband in our yard and hired Adrian of Dylan's Steel Drum Band to play. Adrian came early, was delightful and happy and all of our guests commented on how great he was. I can honestly highly recommend him for good music and a great time. It set the mood for the party and created a very happy gathering.

March 9, 2025Not what I expected
The band members were nothing like the photograph. In fact one of the band members was the guys kid. Adrianne was very nice and friendly but the other two were not.

Hi Brooke-Lynn, thanks for taking the time to give us a review! There are approx. 20 members in my band. I hire according to merit and availability. Both guys I brought are professional and competent in their respective assignments. If you'd have asked for the musicians in the photo that you saw, I would have tried to honor your request... In fact, I did try to secure Nacho's service. He was in Panama. Mark, music professor at SDSU, took his place. Nathan, (my son), is the best rhythm steel drummer in our group.
Was there any problem with our music (sound quality, song selection, etc..)? Arrival time (4pm)? Performance start time (4:55pm)? End time (7:05pm)? The quality of our presentation (attire: Corporate professional, uniform Hawaiian shirts-you mentioned a Yellow theme...)?
Can you please reconsider your review? 3 out of 5 (60%) is a failing grade. We did our best to serve you!
Notwithstanding, It was a pleasure performing for your event! Your group loved us, singing along and dancing to the Marley and Prince songs...
Thanks again for having us!
