May 23, 2024Patrick's steel drums were the hit of our picnic!
The music carried throughout the venue, but did not overwhelm conversation and everyone had a great social time. Will definitely reach out to Patrick Burke again for entertainment.

Our expectations were high and Patrick met every one of them. Courteous, on time (he set up and was ready before our first guests arrived), easy to work with, a wonderful musician/percussionist, he made our party a stellar even. 5 Stars!!!

April 26, 2023Loved Patrick and his Steel Drums!
Patrick played a welcome reception for a corporate offsite event and did a wonderful job of providing just the right sound, music and festiveness to our event. He was easy to contract with, very communicative, on time and on par with what we needed. Couldn't have worked out better! Thank you Patrick.

June 1, 2021Nice job, Patrick!
Patrick performed at a memorial party for my late husband. He was certainly a bright spot in the night. I would highly recommend. He has a very broad music list, and can perform most anything!

Testimonials
We were so pleased with them that we booked them again!! Great personalities, friendly & fun. Great music!! -Mark D,
– -Mark D, Aliso Viejo, 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! --
– Tina T, San Diego, CA, 11/15/2007
• Patrick and Jim were excellent. They were very professional at all times and very helpful leading up to our event. I would work with them again on the kind of venue. --
– Linnea Z, San Diego, CA, 10/21/2007
• 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. --
– Steve D, Solana Beach, CA, 6/16/2007
• The day of my wedding I was so busy for the hour after that he was playing - but in all of the organizing and confirming of the day's events - Pat was great to work with! All of my guests told me that was one of the best parts of the day! Thanks to Pat for making my wedding exactly what we invisioned! --
– Kelly B, Carlsbad, CA, 8/9/2008
• Pat is a professional and talented musician. We received several comments on his steel drum performance throughout the public art event. I would definitely use him again and refer him to others! --
– Sheila K, San Diego, CA, 8/2/2008
• Patrick was Great. the Music was perfect. My guests were so surprised how good the music was. I just loved the steel drums sound for my Tropical themed party. He came just a little early so he started the music on time. Thank you Patrick for adding beautiful music to my birthday party
– Shelly R. Mount Helix La Mesa -- Shelly R, El Cajon, CA, 7/26/2008
• Patrick was friendly, professional and a pleasure to deal with. He was talented and accomodating the day of the event and I would strongly recommend him to anyone. He added a "touch of class" to our party. Thank you Patrick for a job well done. Gloria and Bob Tremolini --
– Gloria T, Murrieta, CA, 6/28/2008
• Patrick has been playing for our 2007 & 2008 Summer Friday night parties at the Rancho Bernardo Inn and we have heard nothing but great comments from our resort guests and employees. Everybody loves his music. The music creates the perfect tropical feel we wanted to have for our Aloha Nights parties. I would 100% recommend Patrick to all of my friends. He is very flexible and easy to work with. The Rancho Bernardo Inn definitely wants to use him again in the future.
– -- Kristy B, San Diego, CA, 6/1/2007
Patrick was so easy to work with before our wedding ceremony. He made it clear that he enjoys performing at weddings. He did a great job at the wedding - we got many comments from our guests about Patrick - they all loved his music! I would hire him again for another event and recommend him to others. Thanks for doing such a wonderful job Patrick! --
– Deanna B, San Diego, CA, 5/25/2008
