Response from Mpanist Steeldrum:
Thanks Ian it was my pleasure working together with you to promote an amazing event
We hold an annual multi-cultural fair that has an entertainment component to the event. Stanley was our final performer and it was such a wonderful way to wrap up our fair - he was amazing! Not only is he a stellar musician but he is a professional, he visited our school before the event to see where he would be performing and he arrived early so that he would be prepared. We were running late with our schedule and Stanley was incredibly understanding and gracious about the delay. He was awesome to work with and we will for sure have him come back to our school!

It was a real pleasure and an honor to be part of your event. Hope we can work together again in the future.
We hired Stanley for a corporate networking event, which was also a reunion held for past interns of our company and National Intern Day. We had around 30-40 people attend throughout the 2 hours, and the music Stanley played really gave our event a fun and energetic vibe. He tailored the playlist to be just the right volume to set a great background for conversation and connection! He arrived early, and he handled all of the set up and tear down seamlessly. Would recommend as a great way to add entertainment factor to an otherwise basic event. All around great experience and would hire again!

Thank you for your kind words it was an honor to play for your special occasion.
It is my privilege to recommend Stanley Alleyne, Steel Drum Soloist of Mpanist for favorites ranging from popular music like Jimmy Buffett to reggae and Calypso. I don’t offer many referrals, so those that I do, are for people that I believe to be of high character that you can engage with confidence. After enjoying Mpanist at a large public event; I booked him for an intimate Birthday party with 12 guests. He was perfect at both - professional, thoughtful, charming, and talented with a musical mix that is pleasing for all ages and occasions. An experienced and highly talented entertainer, the type of person you want in your circle of friends. Best, MJ Vigil

A big thanks to Yvonne for the great review. Look forward to working with you again in the future.
We hired Stanley for a Grand Opening celebration at our business. We had a Luau theme and his music was the perfect icing on the cake! He was on time, dressed nicely, friendly and professional. I recommend him for your next event!

Excellent steel drum player for an indoors memorial service. He muted the steel drum. The volume was perfect. The playing excellent. He arrived and set up early. Performance was excellent. Very much appreciated. He also stayed longer to visit and chat with the other guests. We very much appreciated the song Jamaica Farewell. We had several visiting relatives from Jamaican and they all appreciated the steel drum music and complimented his performance. No complaints. Only compliments. THANK YOU!!! :-)
