Pan Paradise owes its success to the phenomenal music mastermind, Dexter Browne, who grew up hearing the music of the pan yards in Trinidad and Tobago. A savvy and dynamic entertainer, his zest for entertaining began 25 years ago, when he captivated church gatherings with his musical talent and lively performances. Dexter is a renowned artiste whose musical aptitude resonates through his steel pans to appeal to and delight his audiences.

Dexter has several attractive credits to his name. He has arranged and directed music for several elementary and high school students in the South Florida region. He wittingly directed teenagers with no prior experience to the enviable position of two-time State Champions, they went on to compete internationally both at the Alamo Dome in San Antonio, Texas and at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis, Indiana. He is a valued and prominent community leader, who has used his musical ingenuity to instruct young people in music at the Upper Room Christian Academy and Davie Elementary. Additionally, he vigorously volunteers his time and resources in teaching the youth at the Fourth Avenue International Worship Center, the creative art of playing music on the steel pan instruments.

Dexter travels extensively and embraces a wide cross section of people with his brilliant pan music. He has received much favorable publicity and was featured in the following media: Sun Sentinel, the premier issue of Palm Beach Homes and Lifestyles, Channel 7 News and Trinity Broadcasting Network. He has also entertained at major corporate events such as Bank of America, Sun Trust Bank, Burger King, City of Hollywood, and City of Las Olas.

Due to the demand of Pan Music and his love for playing pan, Dexter has established the Reggae/Calypso Band, Pan Paradise. The music of his well sought after band is being requested at weddings, church events, corporate functions, cocktail parties, backyard luau and beach parties. Pan Paradise has played at various Black Tie events; including but not limited to a celebration for the mayor of New York, the inauguration for the Broward County Supervisor of Elections and a few festivities for Broward County Commissioners. In addition to Reggae, Pan Paradise plays Calypso, Soca, Latin, Jazz, the sounds of Jimmy Buffet and the legendary Bob Marley. This widely acclaimed band provides quality music and lively entertainment!

Testimonials

My wife and I booked Dexter for our beach wedding and we couldn't say enough how pleased we were. Dexter's friendly personality, professionalism and attitude were only outdone by his musical ability. We honeymooned in Aruba and were able to witness several other drummers while there. Dexter's sound made a mockery of the other drummers we heard! We couldn't have been happier with the service and quality Dexter offered to us!

This was a big event for us, we had over 700 guest, and naturally we were nervous about it all coming together. Dexter and the rest of the members of Pan Paradise were awesome! They were all very professional and their music was just fantastic - it was enjoyed by everyone. We will definitely use Pan Paradise again for future events and will highly recommend them to others. Thank you all so much for helping to make our event such a success!!

Having a destination wedding I was very concerned about all the things that could go wrong (Will they show up, or do they sound good and so on) That was the biggest waste of my time! If you hire Pan Paradise do not be concerned nor burn up your time thinking about what could happen. Just send Dexter your info. of what you would like and he will take care of everything. When they start playing you will be in shock just how great they are. Everyone who attended our wedding was equally impressed with the magical sound they make. You will not go wrong to hire the band for any event that you are planning!
