"I’m so happy that I chose Wade Austin – the excellent steel pan player - to entertain at my husband’s 80th birthday party on 19 October 2019. Thanks for the variety of steel band music. My guests were very impressed."

"The band set the tone for our beachside wedding perfectly. What a lovely vibe they created. Carolina's warm personality and beautiful voice were just perfect, and the rhythms of the band had loads of people dancing. "

"I’m only just getting around to saying our thank yous and I wanted to say a big one to you and the rest of the EM strings squad on the day! The music was wonderful - I’m only seeing snippets of it now on our guests’ videos from the ceremony and it sounds absolutely beautiful! Thank you for coping in the 34degree heat and putting on a beautiful show for our guests to enjoy. I hope you have a wonderful week and busy wedding season ahead and hopefully we get to meet at a wedding in the future again! "

"We used Sunny Steel Band for our Society Awards and they were fantastic! Thomas was super speedy in responding to all enquiries and Sammy our performer was really professional, open to requests from guests, welcoming and smiley! Could not recommend Sunny Steel Band more :) "

"At an event where traditionally the entertainment is an after dinner speaker, Edina's unassuming and humble style only added to the power of her playing. She awed the audience with a very well chosen selection of expertly played pieces, including some of her own. She told us a little about each piece before playing and looking around, there were people just lost in the sound, others re-living memories, and people enjoying every note. Edina's passion showed clearly - watching her play, you couldn't help really connecting with and feeling the music. We had so many complements afterwards. Thanks Edina!"

"Jonny is great: he plays mean jazz accordion and is a delight to have around. Really made our afternoon in the garden for our guests and made a great atmosphere. It was Autumn Leaves that hooked me in."

"We booked Edina to play for the drinks immediately after our wedding service, on 9th July 2016. We had heard and enjoyed her YouTube videos, and went to see her play in a bar in Brixton. She has an excellent range of styles of music, and was able to include some film music we love, and some Spanish tunes for Marta's Spanish relatives to enjoy. After the wedding, many friends commented they'd enjoyed her playing - excellent soundtrack for a beautiful summer day, both enjoyable for those who wanted to listen, but also unobtrusive for those who were chatting to friends. We'd also add that she's very organised and efficient, making the booking process simple, and she contacted us a few days before the wedding to reassure us that everything was in order and confirming her arrival time (which of course she kept to!) We'd happily encourage anyone looking for great music and no hassle to book her for their event!"

"Ciro is an amazing vocalist. It was a pleasure to see and hear him perform. He is a very engaging live act. I greatly enjoyed his performance and did everyone else."

"We hired Sunny Steel Band to play at our cocktail party and are so happy we did! We booked the five-piece option and they were on time, professional and our guests simply loved them. Can’t recommended enough."
