Reminiscent of the background sound of the pan yards during Carnival
season of Trinidad & Tobago, the 'stylings' of Justin Godfrey on the
hand pan/hang drum hauntingly transfer the listener to the blue waters
and caressing trade winds of the islands. Add to that, the North
American and Asiatic fusions of melody and harmony he enlists, and any
listener is immediately converted to present day tranquility. Justin
Godfrey has created a musical buffet for the senses through his magical
musicianship, a feast fit for any king or queen. -Ellorenz Records 5 May 2015 <ref>[http://www.ellorenzrecords.com/ Ellorenz Records]</ref>

I have been privileged to present solo percussionist Justin Godfrey and his music on my syndicated 'Independent Music Show' reaching 200+ International radio stations and feature him in 'The Independent Music Show Magazine' (May 2015). Justin Godfrey is destined to make his mark in the World music genre. I predict a bright future for this versatile and entertaining young man. - Tom Lambert 28 April 2015 <ref>[http://theindependentmusicshow.com/ The Independent Music Show UK]</ref>

The first time I watched Justin Godfrey perform his instrumental works on the hang drum, I was mesmerized. This is truly an 'experience'. This young man is captivating, a brilliant instrumentalist who will definitely leave his mark in the entertainment business. His original works are creative, well produced and so unique. Prepare to be tantalized. This is music that soothes the soul. - Danie Cortese ''International Promoter & Celebrity Publicist'' 7 April 2015
