"MATFIN provided the entertainment at our charity ball in Plymouth. From the very first contact they were super helpful and extremely professional. Everything literally was Covered. Matt (bandleader) is super quick to respond to enquiries and could not be more helpful. On the night of the event they were set up and ready to go early and on hand to enable us to use their PA for announcements. Once they took the stage the floor immediately filled and stayed like that throughout the evening. A collection of songs to suit everyone with extremely high standards of musicianship throughout the band. MATIFN were a crucial part of making our event such a success. Thank you MATFIN. We highly recommend you to anyone looking to put on a successful event."

"Primed are an absolutely amazing live band and trust me, my husband and I have been to countless gigs and festivals to be able to say this, they were pitch perfect, brilliant musical timing and great entertainers. From the moment I contacted them to the clearing away on our wedding day Primed were polite, courteous and incredibly professional. All our guests loved the songs, they managed to get people from aged 2 to 88 on the dance floor, they even sang happy birthday to my 16 year old cousin. The only complaints I have heard were from the female guests who complained of having achy feet the next day from dancing too much!"

"Dear Bradley, We would like to thank you so much for helping us make our Wedding day so special. The whole experience from discussing a wide range of song choices with you and your performance on the day was outstanding. All our guests commented on how wonderful you played which added elegance and sophistication to our Wedding. I would highly recommend you to family and friends. Thank you again. Andrea and Ian"

"We hired Thomas at the Sunny Steel Band for a 2 hour workshop to teach a group of 30 of us for our corporate team building day. From start to finish Thomas was great, from initial enquiries about booking the band through to when the workshop had finished. He was very informative, polite and attentive. The workshop itself was brilliant as well. We had chosen a couple of songs with Thomas that we wanted to learn prior to the day. Thomas was a great teacher, not only teaching us how to play but the history behind the steel drums and how learning and playing the drums can help us to understand how we all work differently. There were some of the team on the drums whilst the rest were on percussion instruments and we swapped in and out so that everyone got a go on each instrument. At the end of the workshop Thomas played the songs how they should have sounded like(!) and even played a couple of songs upon request so we could hear how the drums can really should sound! Everyone had a great day and I highly recommend the Sunny Steel Band for any corporate team building workshop, we will definitely keep them in mind for further workshops and events we may have. "

"I wish to extend a huge thank you to you and the rest of the trio for the beautiful musical accompaniment to our wedding on 10th July. When I first heard you starting to play while I was getting ready upstairs it really moved me, but also put the biggest smile on my face. The Hoppipolla got me especially. Luke also had the same experience, he got particularly choked up when you played Tale as Old as Time. The playing was just stunning, you are all truly talented. You were very right that Luke and I got whisked away and sadly, this meant we didn't get to hear as much of your playing as we would have wished – do you do recordings at all? I am sorry that we did not get to come and speak to you for any length of time or thank you directly before you left, but please know that we enjoyed every minute we did hear and it really added a sense of emotion and romanticism to the event."

"I wanted to take the time to thank you for contributing tremendously to the success of our wedding day. I have to say that the day was fantastic and far exceeded our expectations. A large part of that was due to the professionalism of our suppliers. We would be so happy to recommend your services to our friends and families for any future engagements that they have. Many of our guests did comment on how wonderful the music was during and after the ceremony. We wish you best wishes for the future and thank you once again for helping to make our special day even more special. "

"Just a quick note to let you know all went very well last night. Wade Austin and Mark turned up well in time for their performance and were extremely polite and accommodating in all respects. Wade is quite a personality and we had great fun talking to him after the performance. They are great musicians and they certainly made a lot of friends down here. If anyone is looking for a steel pan set-up or similar I am sure they will turn to them as their first port of call."

" I wanted to thank you again for the simply stunning performances you gave both during the ceremony and the drinks reception. I cannot stress how many people commented to me how awesome you were and asked me where I found you! I feel so lucky to have stumbled across you online and that you stuck with us throughout SO many pandemic-related changes of plan! Thank you SO much! You really are a true legend with the most unbelievable talent."

"The night was absolutely fantastic, if Monica hadn't stepped in 2 weeks before the event we would of had so many unhappy guests. But instead everyone loved Monica."
