We hired Bongo D to play at our rehearsal and I think it was one of the best decisions we made. Not only was the music great, he also brought out instruments and included people to play with him! So much fun!! -

We were referred to Bongo D by our venue host (Old Town Manor). We knew we wanted steel drums for our wedding cocktail hour and let’s just say Duane’s reviews speak for themselves! He was such a joy to be around and so very talented. Totally engages the crowd, too! It’s a full performance- enjoyable and chill.
When it came time to transition from steel drums to our DJ, it was a smooth, seamless transfer (a bride’s dream).
Duane is a breeze to work with. He answered all of my emails/questions leading up to the day, and just made the process easy. Highly recommend for your next event! -

Bongo D was great! Due to covid, we last minute could not have a DJ, so Bongo D stayed an extra 2-3 hours for us. He played steel drums for our ceremony and through dinner, then switched over to dancing music for the rest of the night. He really added to the tropical fun atmosphere! Thank you so much Bongo D for everything! You did an amazing job and we are so thankful you were able to stay and finish out the night with us! :) -

I knew from the moment I saw a video of him playing at a wedding that I needed him! I loved the vibe that he brought to our cocktail hour at Playa Largo Resort & Spa. He played all of our favorite tunes from Bob Marley to classic calypso. Everyone raved about him, he was so fun and interactive with our guests, even letting the kiddos come up for a closer look. I wish I could of sat on the sand and listed to him all night. Bongo D created the most perfect sound, exactly what I think of when I picture a beach, island wedding. Thank you Bongo D for your exceptional service I would recommend him to everyone! All of our Love, McKenzie and Sean Schnitzer -

Simone Sent on 09/13/2016Bongo D is a must have at any wedding, especially a beach wedding. He played the steel drums during the ceremony and cocktail hour. Not one person failed to mention that it was one of their favorite parts of the wedding. He is extremely talented and his music creates a beautiful atmosphere during the wedding. I highly recommend Duane as my wedding would not have been the same without him! He even gets the audience to participate and try out his instruments! A true entertainer and great addition to any wedding! -

Diane Sent on 07/02/2016Don't just book Bongo D, book is band as well. It was a little more to pay but worth it by far. Our guests were so expressed that we provided a live steel drum band. They are the real deal, look and sound amazing. Reminded us of Bob Marley. They played for 2 hours and with full energy. Don't look for another band in Key West because Bongo D and his band Niceness which consists of 4 additional instruments will be an amazing addition to your wedding. -

Jamie Sent on 06/22/2016Bongo D was absolutely an amazing musician and he was very personable when interacting with our guests. He got guests involved in playing instruments which made our event more fun! Bongo D provided steel drum music for our rehearsal dinner and it really helped create a fun atmosphere for our celebration. Bongo D arrived with plenty of time to set up and his music was incredible. I highly recommend Bongo D as a musician for any wedding event! -

Sarah Sent on 11/26/2014Bongo D was such a great addition to our rehearsal dinner. He was a pleasure to work with while planning the night and selecting our favorite songs.
Not only did he add so much to the night, but he truly had a great time doing it. He was dancing around and singing the whole night. He included the guests by giving them instruments to play. We even asked him to stay for a few more songs and he was happy to do so.
Wonderful guy, great music, can't go wrong with Bongo D! -

Not only was the music perfect, fun and entertaining but he also got the kids involved and gave them each their own instruments. I really don't have enough good things to say about him, he is the perfect addition to any wedding or rehearsal dinner!! -

He went above and beyond!
Bongo D really outdid himself for our wedding! He played perfectly for our ceremony and for our cocktail hour. We had some miscommunication with our band so they were delayed in setting up and Bongo D helped bide time with playing longer than he was supposed to. He interacts with the guests and gives out such a fun vibe. I really enjoyed him and am so glad we hired him!! We miss you Bongo D! -
