Booked for Corporate Function

Abdul was brilliant. He hit the spot with his music and was just what we wanted for our summer party. Punctual, very responsive and flexible to our needs, I would highly recommend him to anyone and we will certainly use him again for future events.

Booked for Wedding

I have to be honest, booking Holly’s band was a bit of an amazing fluke. We had actually booked another steel drum band who let us down by telling us 2 months before the wedding they couldn’t learn the song we had asked them 7 months before (one we’d like to walk down the aisle to). In a panic I started sending out messages to all steel drum bands in the North East. Not only was Holly the quickest to get back, with the best offer but the band already knew our aisle song! I couldn’t believe our luck! Not only that, Holly offered to learn more songs to make the day even more personal to us. The music filled our day with joy and so many of our guests have asked for a CD of Holly’s band (yes, Holly, I will be in touch begging for this!). You are an exceptionally talent group of musicians and the moment of hearing a melodic version of Local Hero as I walked down the aisle will be a memory I cherish forever. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding such a unique and memorable day. X

Booked for Private party

The guys were absolutely fabulous! Arrived early, looked the part, were really professional but easy going. Guests loved the steel drums, the dance floor was full to bursting all night! Limbo pole was hilarious, and the percussion instruments were great fun too! Would book them again, no hesitation. I would highly recommend Steelasophical!!

"Gary was there on time and played as requested, where he set up outside the walls of the church was fine as it covered both the entrance to the church and the graveside but what i would like to know is, did Gary set himself up there or was he told that he had to go there by the church official? Thanks Gary. Clive Eden"

Booked for Wedding

These guys were amazing!! We had them for our tipi wedding in Barnsley and we couldn’t have been happier! They were so professional and even when the rain started, they kept the atmosphere and brought the pans inside to keep playing. Would 100% recommend to anyone wanting steel drums at their event! Thank you so much x

The Solid Steel band played at our Engagement BBQ this Summer - really brilliant entertainment! All the guests immediately got into the vibe when they started playing. Great selection of hits that everyone knew. A really nice way to add something a bit different to your event which is both laid back but professional. Paul was very speedy with communication and also accommodated last minute time changes (due to the start time of the football quarter-finals!). Would definitely use again!

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.
