About Pan In Paradise - Steel Drum Music

Pan In Paradise - Steel Drum Music

Steel Drum Artist

As a local Florida Keys musician, I’m deeply connected to this community. I understand the venues, weather, and flow of a Keys celebration. Unlike mainland performers, I bring authentic island style, professionalism, and care to every couple—tailoring music to your vision, reading the energy of your guests, and creating a relaxed, unforgettable tropical atmosphere. Choosing a local artist supports the people who keep the Keys’ culture alive while ensuring your wedding is filled with truly authentic steel drum music.

I’ve shared my music in 25+ countries and across the U.S., performing solo and alongside 8 Grammy-winning artists. I’ve played for NASA, Coca-Cola, Walt Disney World, the Olympics, and the U.S. Air Force. Now based in the Florida Keys, I’m an in-demand artist at award-winning venues, blending island classics, Jimmy Buffett, calypso, soca, reggae, and American favorites to create a tropical paradise. Perfect for weddings, cocktail hours, welcome dinners, and private events. Pan In Paradise is veteran-owned, registered, and insured.

    We cannot thank Chuck enough for the incredible experience he created to kick off our wedding weekend. From the very beginning he was so responsive, kind, and easy to work with. His music set the perfect tone and it truly brought the island vibe to life and made our evening unforgettable. Once the contract was signed, he handled everything. Fully self-sufficient with setup and breakdown, which gave us so much peace of mind. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing, and that level of professionalism made the event feel effortless. Our guests raved about him, and we genuinely felt his talent and energy elevated the whole event. He fit the atmosphere perfectly and exceeded every expectation we had. I would 100% recommend him to anyone planning an event in the Keys (or anywhere!).

From the very beginning he was incredibly responsive, professional, and so easy to coordinate with. His talent is truly amazing — the music created the perfect tropical vibe and made the entire celebration feel magical and relaxed. Our couples and guests loved him, and I can’t recommend him enough for any event in the Keys!
