Sterling was great, he was the hit of the party. Sterling got everyone involved up dancing around the pool. He was very accommodating to all the guest request. The children were up dancing they loved who let the dogs out. He was excellent thanks Sterling.
Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on August 26, 2010•From Westbury, NY
Words cannot express how impressed my husband, family, friends and I were with Sterling C. Sample. As a bride there's so many things to worry about on the day of your wedding. Having never booked anything online before I had no idea what to expect. Upon arriving at my catering hall I could already hear the beautiful sound of steel drums in the distance, 15 minutes early!!! I was so excited! I hired Sterling for my cocktail hour and him and the other musicians really set the tone for rest of the evening. I highly recommend them, they were professional, personable and talented. I can guarantee that I will be using him for future parties!

Sterling played for my twin's 6th birthday in my backyard. He arrived on time, dressed to party. Set up took little time. He played great songs for 2+ hrs, as requested. Adults + kids all raved about the music. He even stayed past the party time to teach the kids how to play steel drum. He is kind and genuine and loves music and teaching. Highly recommend him for any occasion -- have given out his name to friends and family for future occasions! Thanks a ton Sterling. One love, my brother....

We could not have asked for more! Mr. Sample is a very professional, talented and kind man.
He saved the day when the my son's keyboard would not work--he was to play on the beach for his sister's wedding. Sterling raced to his car to retrieve his steel drum and saved the day with a beautiful rendition of Pachelbel and Here Comes the Bride.
Fabulous!

Sterling performed at my husband's 50th birthday and I must say, he made the party. From the moment I met Mr. Sample, I knew we were in for a fabulous day. He really set the tone for the day and my guests ARE STILL talking about the music. He was so accomodating, letting the kids sing along with him and even play his steal drum. Thank you Sterling, for giving us a party that no one will forget! I think we will make it an annual event!!!

Sterling was EXCELLENT! He was friendly, entertaining, energetic... just a total pleasure. He showed up in plenty of time to set up, had no unreasonable special requests for set up. Our guests totally enjoyed every minute. The time flew by. Thank you STERLING - I hope there will be other opportunities!

What a fabulous evening. Having never booked a performer I was a little nervous about this event. Sterling was very professional and helpful throughout the entire process and arrived half an hour prior to the event as promised. Sterling is very talented, most accomodating, professional and I would highly recommend him. Thank you for an unforgettable evening at President James Buchanan's Wheatland.

Sterling Sample made our party an absolute hit. Everyone couldn't stop complementing me on having him there. He brings his own power supply, so you can have your party anywhere without worrying about electricity. He is entertaining, professional,flexbile and a complete sweetheart. I can't say enough about him! Thank you Sterling!!

Mr. Sample was wonderful in all respects. He was professional, prompt, and appropriate. He read my crowd and adapted his music accordingly. He really went with my theme and took it to the next level. I would recommend Mr. Sample to anyone that inquired. He is a class act.

I hired Mr Sample for a surprise engagement (true island style). We pulled up in front of my GF house early Saturday morning...Mr Sample arrived on time and with all his gear in tow. We snuck up to the house, opened the gate and entered the driveway then Mr Sample started to play the steel pan. The entire neighborhood woke up to the beautiful sounds of steel pan! She awakes and looks out the window wondering who is making all the chaos and noise..she runs downstairs still half asleep and comes unto the deck. I go down on one knee and the tears of happiness and joy was overwhelming! Mr Sample truly added his special majic to our special day!

Despite the fact that the rain interfered with the function, he was very creative and started playing as soon as he got a chance. I was afraid his equipment was going to get wet, BUT thank God he took care of it well.
He forgot his receipt book but we were ok with that. We signed a comfortable acceptance of payment note with him.
Thank you for making his work accessible.
Very good gentleman!
We will see him again.
