Hiring a steel drum percussionist for your function will be a unique & memorable entertainment experience. Below is all the info you will need to enjoy the music! When space is at a premium, I can fit in perfectly with my compact setup. I regularly perform at the following:

Private parties (including backyards!)
Corporate Events
School Functions
Festivals
Restaurants
Clubs
Wedding receptions
Or any time that you would like to add that island flare.

I charge based on the day of the week your event is, the distance I will have to travel, and what is required from me (how long you want me to play, how large a venue, will I need lighting, ect.) I have around 4 hours of music that I can perform without repeating anything. Roughly 70+ songs in my repertoire that is always growing. (see my Song list page)  For evening parties, I can add some great mood lighting.  If you’d like to hear what I sound like, visit my CD page,  there you will hear an exact representation of what I sound like live. OR, visit my ‘videos’ page to SEE exactly what do!!

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you are interested in something large or small. Times and pricing can be negotiated. Hopefully you will agree, that live entertainment is well worth the investment. You won't be disappointed with the quality of this experience.  Book early!!!  I generally fill my summer schedule 4-6 months in advance.

Requirements:  One power outlet and 4’x6’ of flat, dry space is ALL I need!  All backup tracks are played on my iPod (in AIF format for CD quality) over my amazing Bose L1 (the stick!) and tiny subwoofer using a mini sound board for control. This thing sounds amazing!

Extras: I can also D/J your party afterwards with over 7,000 songs on my iPod.  Extra lighting and one incredible LASER are available. 

Need a CAKE?  I know one of the best cake makers in the midwest - she’s my mother-in-law!  ask me how to get one of her creations!!

If this sounds like something you'd like to pursue, contact me anytime via email OR call 219-325-8261 and ask for Kent

Payment options: Check, Cash. (credit cards returning soon)

Dear Kent,
You probably haven’t even had time to get out of out parking lot, but I would like to THANK YOU for the wonderful concert and the educational information you shared with the residents today at Miller’s Senior Living Community. The day was a wonderful success. You were just the right touch we needed for our Caribbean Buffet and Party. We think you are an expert!!!! The residents loved you and what you DON’T know is you had the staff dancing around the corner in the Dining Room. Thank you for sharing your talent and for a wonderful experience!!
Sincerely,
Cindy F.

Kent was awesome! He even allowed one of our own percussionists to play along with him for a bit. Not only is Kent an incredible steel drummer, he's also very friendly and accommodating! I will recommend him to anyone hosting a party who needs lively entertainment!
