Musical Acts

"When planning my daughter's wedding, which was always destined to be a multicultural blend of music genres, styles, and rhythmic offerings, I was set on finding that flair to entertain our guests with a little taste of their own familiar music and I happened upon the One Man Steel Drum Band on a popular gig website. With the union of the kids spanning the globe and including West Indian, Latin, and Russian culture, this was a perfect choice! Upon establishing contact with John Skoczen, I realized very quickly that he would be an effective and professional communicator who cared not only about his role in our event but also the appeal of such things as attire, the set list, any particular requests related to the guests, and the full gamut of helping us to make our event delightful. John consistently maintained contact with me regarding updates, directions, and special elements. No portions of our interactions were confusing for me. He was so patient and understanding upon arriving at the venue whereas I was as a scattered and frazzled mother of the bride and coordinator. He quickly became like family, AND his talent is out of this world! I will definitely be booking John again for a future occasion. Allie B. Texas Wedding - Memorial Day 2019"

"An absolute dream, I couldn't have imagined a better band to open up our dancefloor! You guys are just amazing and learning the first dance song and then playing my favourite song as a surprise was just magical!"

"She has a melodious voice. Really her live performance is superb !"

"Thank you, Rich, for making our Christmas party so memorable. Rich was absolutely fantastic at our Christmas party! His guitar performance set the perfect atmosphere — warm, festive, and professional throughout the entire event. What we especially appreciated was that he provided a full playlist for us to choose from ahead of time, which made the planning process so easy and personal. Every song he played fit the mood perfectly, and our guests loved the music. On top of his talent, Rich is also incredibly kind, easy to communicate with, and a true pleasure to work with. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for live guitar music for a party or special event, and we would happily book him again in the future."

"From beginning to end Alex and his wife Jenny were outstanding!! You have no idea how special you made our night! As we were organising from a different country planning this event felt it should have been harder but they were both so easy going, professional and the most fun!! Our party was small and we were worried about the size but the atmosphere that was created made me wonder why I was ever worried. Alex, you are extremely talented! We cannot thank you enough, its been days and we are all still talking about what a great night it was! If I could rate you higher than 10 we would! Our bride felt so special and we as the organisers really cannot thank you enough. We hope to have the pleasure to book with you again"

"We loved having you play at our party, your band was amazing!!"
