The CalypsoNuts have been entertaining people from Upstate New York to Key West, Florida since 1998. Steel Drums, some Reggae, some Buffett, some of everything and never too much of any one thing. We average 250 shows per year and when there's time off we jump on a cruise ship and let them take care of us for a while. We're partners both on and off the stage. Makes for a pretty sweet life!
