"On behalf of Athénée, we would like to express our absolute satisfaction with the live performances of Stefania Morozini on vocals and Haris Mpotsis on keys. Both the audience and our team were thoroughly impressed! They are true professionals and of course incredibly talented! Without a doubt, Stefania and Haris will be our first choice for any future live events we host."

Thanos Chrampanis - Athenee Athens- Thanksgiving Dinner
Steel Drum Player
"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.

Paul Wainwright
"The Aegir Room February 1, 26 FB post:
Had a wonderful evening seeing Paul Wainwright perform at The Oswego Hotel’s Aegir Room in James Bay. From the moment he started playing, it was clear we were in for something special. A terrific performance in an intimate setting, paired with delicious food, cold beverages, and genuinely excellent service — it all added up to a delightful night of music, friends, and great vibes.
If you haven’t seen Paul Wainwright perform (and honestly, where have you been? He’s been a mainstay of the local music scene for years), I highly recommend you make it a point to catch him live.
Good news: Paul will be back at the Aegir Room (the coolest lounge in Victoria) at The Oswego Hotel on Sunday, February 8th and Sunday, February 15th, from 6:00–8:00 pm.
Reservations are recommended.
Support live music and treat yourself to a fantastic evening — you won’t be disappointed."

They involve the audience throughout, and always do the utmost to get people dancing. The band are really together and play a good cross section of tunes I've been absolutely inundated with praise for them and will definitely be rebooking them in the very future. Excellent."
