Steel Drum Player
"When planning my daughter's wedding, which was always destined to be a multicultural blend of music genres, styles, and rhythmic offerings, I was set on finding that flair to entertain our guests with a little taste of their own familiar music and I happened upon the One Man Steel Drum Band on a popular gig website. With the union of the kids spanning the globe and including West Indian, Latin, and Russian culture, this was a perfect choice!
Upon establishing contact with John Skoczen, I realized very quickly that he would be an effective and professional communicator who cared not only about his role in our event but also the appeal of such things as attire, the set list, any particular requests related to the guests, and the full gamut of helping us to make our event delightful. John consistently maintained contact with me regarding updates, directions, and special elements. No portions of our interactions were confusing for me. He was so patient and understanding upon arriving at the venue whereas I was as a scattered and frazzled mother of the bride and coordinator. He quickly became like family, AND his talent is out of this world! I will definitely be booking John again for a future occasion.

"Jim played at our corporate happy hour celebration, and honestly, I can’t rave enough about how fantastic he was. I had never booked a live musician before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect—but Jim made the entire process so easy. His communication was excellent from the start, and he worked with us to tailor the music list perfectly for our event.
He showed up early to set up (which is super important for me), and everything was smooth and professional. Once he started playing, wow—he’s not just an exceptional guitarist, he’s fun, engaging, and brought such great energy to the party. All of my colleagues were impressed, not only by his talent but by how cool and easygoing he is.
Jim truly made our party sparkle. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, talented, and just a joy to work with, I give him the strongest recommendation possible. Thank you, Jim—you made our event unforgettable!

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Penny. She performed during my proposal to my now fiancée, and from the very beginning she was unbelievably helpful, kind, and supportive. She put me completely at ease throughout the planning process, offered thoughtful guidance, and gave me such peace of mind on what was honestly one of the most nerve-wracking and meaningful days of my life.
Her performance itself was absolutely stunning, emotional, elegant, and perfectly timed. The music elevated the moment in a way we will never forget. It felt intimate, magical, and deeply personal, and it’s a moment we will cherish forever.
She didn’t just perform beautifully, she truly made the entire experience extra special. I’m so grateful for her professionalism, warmth, and talent, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking to create a meaningful, unforgettable moment."
