January 2, 2024Made our event GREAT!
Scott was more than we imagined when hiring a steel drummer for our Margaritaville themed Cleveland Charge game. He began playing on a busy concourse and it was well received by our staff and fans alike, then he was flexible with being willing to move to a second location downstairs and set up in our Beach themed bar area where he was able to plug in and the entire arena was able to hear him play during breaks in the action. On time, very talented, and all around a great person to work with! Highly recommend!

April 23, 2023Easy, professional and great performance
Scott is an amazing musician and an all-around great individual.
At the last minute, Scott helped our high school to put on a highly successful Culture Fest. He played both the bagpipes and the steel drums and he played them both excellently. He was more than on time and he took to a completely unfamiliar setting in no time at all. I cannot say more good things about Scott. Book him for your next event and you will not regret it. Thank you so much again, Scott!

October 4, 2022Thank you, Scott!
Our guests from our wedding are still raving about Scott's performance as they entered our reception. Scott played while people enjoyed a cocktail party and dinner at the yacht club. He set the mood for a perfect day. He really is masterful. Whether you have an event next to the water, a corporate retreat, a convention cocktail party; your guests will be talking about Scott for year's to come. Thank you, Scott!

What to expect
You will experience the look and sounds of being on a relaxing tropical vacation. My performance and presentation is modeled after all the steel drum performance I've seen in popular tourist type areas. A neat clean look, a friendly performer and tropical sounds for the steel drum. Style include but are not limited to reggae, pop, jazz, soca, calypso and more.
