I wanted to personally thank you for the entire experience from the booking and payment process, to the actual performance and entertainment. I heard nothing but positive feedback from everyone in attendance at our Company’s 7th Annual Pig Roast. They really enjoyed the music and your performance, and it was the perfect background music for our festive event. You are a true professional and I will definitely recommend you to anyone looking for steel drum entertainment at any event. Hopefully we’ll be able to see you again at our 8th Annual Pig Roast.

Sorry for the delay—I’ve been out of the office. Here is what the coordinator had to say regarding your drummer’s services:
“He was very nice…did his own thing, set up in a timely manner and even played where he was set up by the beach when everyone went over by the basketball courts to take pictures. He just kept playing away…I love that kind of music and it was perfect for a beach wedding…I would definitely recommend him again!”

RythmTrail was very prompt in responding to my request for a quote and I thought their pricing was reasonable for my Cocktail Hour and Wedding Ceremony in Naples. They were flexible in the dealing with changes in the ceremony start time and I was able to contact them any time. The best part of RythmTrail is that you can tell that the players enjoy what they do. Videos of other steel drummers during my research may have played well but they didn’t ‘feel’ the music like RythmTrail.

The company was more than professional and timely about the booking and the steel drum playing was amazing. Both years the guests loved it! We already can’t wait to hire you guys again for next year!

Thanks so much for travelling to Longboat Key, playing steel drum at our beach wedding ceremony, and being our DJ at the dinner and dance! Our guests absolutely LOVED the steel drum!! Your DJ skills were great, we appreciate you using the majority of the song we requested and then adding in a few of your own to keep the party going! Most of all, thanks for learning our requested steel drum songs for the ceremony…that really meant a lot to us!
All the best!

The steel drums at the ceremony and cocktail hour were awesome, beautiful and beachy, it gave our beachside terrace ceremony the perfect laidback, airy feel! Everything I wanted, timed to perfection.
The DJ-ing into the evening was fantastic, you were right on schedule, friendly, personable, and flexible to requests. You really got my guests up and moving and kept it going all night long! We had a mixed group and you jived for us all night, everyone raved and said they haven’t danced that much in years we had ages 15-84 up and at it dancing all night!! My 84 year old grandma, who just had knee replacement surgery in January, was out there all night…..she even out-danced us youngsters! You really got her moving.
Thank you for making it such a special evening for us! I would highly recommend Rhythm Trail!!!
Sincerely,

Your steel drum artists at our wedding were excellent! They arrived on time, set up quickly and played the music for our ceremony so beautifully. Because our wedding took place on the beach, steel drums seemed only fitting. Our guests were so impressed by the music and our music selection, some even sat right next to the drummers and couldn’t get enough! Having the steel drummers made our wedding seem so tropical and relaxing – it was a pleasure doing business with Rythm Trail. Thank you!

When we started to plan for our daughters baby shower there wasn’t a plan for live music. My husband and I love Caribbean Music. My husband Jim asked me to search the internet for Steel Drum music and that’s when I found your website. As someone who relies on the internet for our business, I put a lot of stock in a company’s website that I may do business with. Your website was perfect and there were no surprises, even making the payment was simple and trusted.
This baby shower was for our oldest daughter, her husband and our very first Grandchild. We wanted to day to be perfect and represent our joy. Ephraim, we want you to know that you made our day PERFECT. Our guests said this was the best Baby Shower they had ever attended and the music pushed this day over top. Ephraim you knew what the perfect volume should be, what music should be played, I know we could have made our own music selections but you took this pressure off of us. We had over 60 guests and everyone loved your music. Today the day after the party I have been emailing your information to so many.
Our 2nd daughter and her husband are having twins and their Baby Shower will be in June and I’m sure you will be part of our plans.
Thank you,

Prior to the wedding, Ephraim was always quick to get back to us and gave quick, no nonsense answers. A plus for people are constantly working. When delivering our must not play list (and play list) he pointed out the inconsistencies and asked us what we would prefer. (I feel like most people wouldn’t have bothered to ask.)
At the wedding, I, the groom, asked to walk down the aisle to the Harry Potter theme (from the movie). He learned the song for me and played them on the Steel Drums flawlessly. I couldn’t have been happier. Also, my new brother in law was to sing that he wrote for us at the ceremony. Not wanting to bring a lot of equipment on an airplane, Ephraim kindly lent him the plugs, microphones and speakers that our guest needed. Something he did not have to do, but did. Thank you Ephraim.
During cocktail hour we were off getting pictures taken, but from what we heard, the drums sounded wonderful. All of our guests complimented him and the fantastic touch that he added to our island wedding. His prices are far more reasonable than anyone else we looked at. A great alternative to just a plain ol’ DJ.
At the reception, he played each of our requested songs, and the guests had a blast dancing all night long. We had a lot of must play songs, including classic rock, rock, dance music and traditional wedding music. He made all of it feel seamless and everything came together nicely.
And on one other note, at the end of the night, we accidently overpaid Ephraim by hundreds of dollars. (My wife thought we forgot to pay the remaining balance, and so paid him twice.) At the after party, he seeked us out to return the remaining amount. A truly honest, as well as talented, man.
One bit of advice if you book Ephraim (and if you’re having a beach wedding, you have to), be clear about what and when you have music played. At the reception, events like the father daughter dance, mother son dance, speeches were going by REALLY quick. But we didn’t iterate that we wanted everything spaced out, so our wedding planner took notice and slowed him down a little. And during the ceremony, my bride missed walking down the aisle to her song, Over the Rainbow. I don’t know whether this is my oversight, Ephraim’s, or our wedding planners, or a mix of the three of us. Just remember to communicate more than I did.
Overall, you have to book Ephraim. He’s super talented, which included learning music for the ceremony that I don’t think he would have played before, and possibly playing music that I’m sure he didn’t own. (Our first song was “Married Life” from the movie Up.) Don’t miss out on Rhythm Trails. They helped make our wedding as great as it was. (And I wouldn’t have changed a thing.)

The online booking was incredibly easy, Ephraim’s email communication was perfect for me because I work full time and it was great to be able to write/respond from my iPhone at any time.
The morning of the wedding he arrived early and was so accommodating regarding the use of his microphone for speeches, the minister, etc… and he played every song we requested.
We got so many compliments on the Steel Drum music and regarding what an absolute gentleman Ephraim is. He had everyone dancing and we all had a complete blast!
I can’t thank him enough for the exceptional performance and extreme professionalism.

I want to sincerely thank you for help making my party a success. In spite of the heavy rain, your company still came through for my party and was there before time to set up and get started before your time to start the show. I personally was not there to see the performance, BUT my guests were very pleased and impressed by Dusty’s performance. They loved how Dusty was able to play all kinds of music and also sing along with the beat. Because it was the holiday season, I am happy that he played some Christmas songs. I can tell you that my guests were very, very happy. I am only sad that I was not able to enjoy Dusty’s performance as my quests did. I know you will probably get more business as my guests were fascinated and pleased with his performance. I am a very satisfied customer because my guests were very happy and my party turned out wonderful.
Thank you again and I would definitely recommend Rythmtrail.

From the tropical music you played on the steel drum at our beach ceremony to the modern tunes at our reception, our guests had an absolute blast, and so did we! Many of our guests commented that it was “so cool” and “really unique” that we had a steel drummer as part of our wedding. Additionally, you helped keep our party going with your song selections; all of our guests of varying generations were able to dance at one point or another throughout the reception. We really appreciate your passion for what you do; you exceeded all of our expectations. Thank you so much!

Client Feedback
Excellent customer contact and service from Ephraim before the event. And during the event, Dusty had just the right touch and the right music at all times. He was extremely accomodating to our guests that were interested in the learning how to play the drum. A great entertainer – and perfect personality match for our group of friends.

Dusty was great. On time, friendly, fit in well with the crowd and kept the music going. It was a perfect music choice for both the picnic as well as the location. Many people commented how much they liked the music, and how much it added to the company picnic. Thank you – planning company picnics can be crazy but your group made the music portion worry-free!
Two people asked me for information on the band, as they would like to use you in the future. So, you may be getting additional calls!

Steel Drum Wedding Music at Wedding on March 29 2009 Jacksonville Florida
Thank you SO VERY MUCH for providing the music for our wedding. We have received many compliments on our “unconventional choice of music”. I am very happy with how things turned out and loved what you provided. The booking process was easy as was the music choice; My grandfather is still talking about “the band”! Thank you, thank you, thank you! We loved it (and so did our guests)!

[quote]I recently hired RythmTrail to play the steel drums during our wedding ceremony and also to MC our reception. We were so happy with everything! All the songs we asked him to play were played and it turned out great! I would highly recommend this company, especially if you are like me and you did not want the traditional “cheezy” wedding DJ!
Thank you for everything!

Thank you so much for everything! Our guests had a wonderful time! ![]()
The steel drummer was amazing! His performance was the highlight of our cocktail reception. Our guests couldn’t get enough of the music coming from the steel drum, which made it hard for us to end the cocktail reception to begin the main reception! Anyone looking for a Steel Drummer should look no further then RyhtmTrail!

We were very happy with Dusty’s performance at our daughter’s graduation party. The mood that was set by his selection of songs enhanced the spirit of our event. Our friends, neighbors and relatives will be speaking of this event for months to come. We would recommend RythmTrail for anyone’s gathering; truly first rate entertainment!

Dil,
We thought he was absolutely wonderful, excellent professional man. Yes the tone was Fantastic. Are guests felt like we had taken them to the Islands for are wedding. The wedding and reception had a tone set for everyone to have a wonderful time. We interviewed several at the time 9-12 months ago don’t remember the names now. RythmTrail stood out above all. We was on Time, Actually early to get set up and find out last min. details from the wedding coordinators. I will hire him in the future for other events. After hearing his music and talking to Ephraim we stopped are search as we knew he was the one for us. Very accommodating. We would highly recommend RythmTrail for your wedding, or any other event needing the Island Vibe. Sorry for the delay in returning answers for you, We just returned from are honeymoon in the Bahamas.
P.S.
Having RythmTrail play at are wedding got us started in the Island mood for are honeymoon in the Bahamas.

Where do we begin..From start to finish you helped make our special day absolutely amazing. All our guests are still talking about all your nonstop entertainment. Your music selection provided all our guests a chance to get up and.enjoy themselves on the dance floor. Your vocals on the mic and the skills you have on the steel drums definitely stood out to everyone including the waitstaff. They could not stop talking about how much fun they had working that Wedding. They loved the fact that they could show off there talents under the limbo stick.
Monica and I want to especially thank you for always being available prior to our wedding for all our questions & concerns. Your a true professional with a very BIG SMILE

From the beach, to the outside patio at the club, to the inside dining hall, you never missed a beat. We threw you a few curves requesting a couple extra songs at the last minute. Not only did you come through for us but you came through smiling all the way. You were so expedient and discreet moving from one location to another I don’t think anyone even noticed.
Thanks again for your patience, courtesy, cooperation, professionalism, and outstanding music. You added even more beauty to Falyn and Beck’s beautiful day. We commend you for a job well done and extend our highest recommendations.
