Ravon was wonderful, guests are still talking about him.

We and our 27 guests LOVED Radon! I knew from viewing his video clips that he was a talented, musician and singer. His interactions with the audience were warm friendly. Our granddaughter is already thinking of him for her wedding reception! Thank you, Ravon!

He came in set up his equipment and immediately wowed the entire family with his playing and vocals. I will definitely be booking him again for more events. He played all the hits and took on any request, and was very engaging with everyone.

Ravin arrived early, set up his equipment and began mesmerizing myself and my guests with his voice and his fabulous music. We felt we were on an island enjoying the reggae vibes. It was Ravon's birthday and ge played his heart out for us. We can't wait to have him back.

Ravon added such a great element to our Bakery's 7th birthday party! He entertained guests, was very interactive and was very professional! Showed up on time, had a quick and easy setup, and played a great mix of songs! He was amazing!! Our guests continued to say that we should have him at the bakery every week!

A pan artist who can please a crowd of Trinidadians has to be phenomenal! Ravon entertained our wedding guests with authentic pan classics and current hits! Other vendors commented on his professionalism and ability to work easily with them. Additionally, Ravon was wonderful in working with us through several date changes due to the pandemic.

Ravon was absolutely the best! He carried amazing energy with him the entire time and put a smile on everyone's face. This event was waterfront, outside for roughly 400 students. Our student body was thrilled with the song lineup, there was a perfect mix of his original songs and today's hits! Overall, I think I can speak for everyone at Eckerd College that we HIGHLY recommend any/all of Ravon's sets. I hope to book him again soon!

9/17/2019... I hired Ravon to perform at my company party after watching his YouTube videos through GigSalad. We had many options for steel drummers and after a lot of review we went with Ravon and he traveled from Orlando to West Palm Beach to perform at our event. HE WAS AWESOME! Not only can he rock any reggae song you can think of (Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, etc.) He can also play Bruno Mars - Miles Davis - and Queen 🙌🏼 Ravon is not just a fantastic steel drummer - he is also an amazing vocalist and all around musical rock star ⭐️ He showed up on time - rocked hard for over 3 hours and was a joy to work with. I can’t wait to hire him again.

We can't say enough about how amazing Ravon is. He made the entire event and we were so grateful to get to experience his talent and professionalism. Run, don't Walk to book this genius!

This was our second time using Ravon. Such a pleasure to use his services again for our reception.
Steel Drum Player

Ravon was great. All our guest enjoyed his performance. He engaged the crowd with high energy and professionalism. Highly recommend him to anyone. Thanks again!!

Just to start, before our guests could see him, they thought it was a cd with someone playing the steel drum accompaniment. When they realized it was him singing, they were marveled! Appreciate Davon's talent so much.
Caribbean/Island Music, Steel Drum Band

This is the second year to have Ravon and his steel drums at our pool party event. Everyone loved this event, more than last year even, 100 people attended! I'm getting phone calls asking when we can do it again. Thank you so much.

Best decision we made when planning this party, was choosing Ravon! Amazing performer, in tune to the crowd, interactive, cheerful, fun. I never thought the best rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody that I ever heard would be performed by a steel drum player. And what a player he is! Very talented musician for sure. This party was a hit for sure ... thanks in large part to Ravon!

2nd time we have had him over, Ravon aka "Steely" is the hit of the party, just the best!
Caribbean/Island Music, Steel Drum Player

Cannot say enough good things about my experience with Ravon. He communicated well beforehand and was low maitenance in terms of what he needed. He was incredibly warm and friendly. He was a fantastic musician. What set him apart was the vibe. The range of music was super fun. We sang songs together. Everyone had an absolute blast. Highly, highly recommended.
