Surprise your colleagues and hire a steel drum band for your office Christmas party. You can hire our band for parties in the City of London, Canary Wharf or any other business district. The sound is all acoustic and an excellent option for a drinks reception or office buffet party. We also feature some of the best players in this sector which means that you can expect a real quality sound.
Our band is invited to many company parties, conferences and awards ceremonies to perform either as guests are arriving for a black tie reception or during an evening buffet. You can almost sense the atmosphere in your office as you listen to the live demo.
We also have many executive PA's hiring the band to entertain at the home of company CEO's and VP's etc,. The service offering is very specific and has a niche where it is fit for the purpose. More companies are familiar with our reputation and have used the band at high-end parties and launch events. Each enquiry to hire our band for a company event or company party is carefully assessed to meet your requirements and impress your guests.
We have successive bookings from many companies that know exactly what to expect from our band.
Recent clients:
For 2014, we have more company events than ever before, especially in the City of London, Westminster and Canary Wharf business districts. On many occasions the company needed a small band to perform background music whilst they entertain potential clients with champagne and canapes, etc,. This is an area where you can rely on our experience to really impress V.I.P clients.
Our band can be hired for midweek bookings at short notice to satisfy any impulsive requests. We are very familiar with the complex network of roads in the City of London and Canary Wharf and know the drill with parking, loading, security protocol and setting up, etc,. This can be a nightmare for a newbie, especially at venues like Tower 42, Paternoster Square, Broadgate Circle or Canary Wharf; you can rest assured with our experience from many corporate events that the band will be in place to start at least 45 minutes before the first guests arrive.
Mixers
Many companies use our service as background music for a mixer. Just imagine your guests arriving and hearing the exotic sounds of an experienced steel drum band ensemble as you are served chamapgne or Pimms.
We have covered many mixers at Middle Temple and Grays Inn for various chambers and your clients will appreciate listening to something different. For this we use just 3 players and you can expect a fluent repertoire of interesting melodies to inspire your guests.
Summer Parties
Our steel drum band is in demand for corporate summer parties. This is our core business and our regular clients like to make their reservations very early for key dates. As the London skyline changes and many companies hire outdoor spaces and terrace venues, our service has become more attractive for corporate entertainment. The summer party season lasts until the end of September and you can enjoy it with exotic music from our 5 piece ensemble or 3 piece steel drum band.
Background music
Our band is also hired to play background music for many conference intervals or after party, dinner parties and various indoor events. Hotels also use the service for music in the foyer during a special event or party. We have used the 3 piece band as an acoustic ensemble for company events as it does not require a power supply. Many clients are also expressing a preference for the full 5 piece band which includes a drum kit and congas. If you have the budget, then this option is an excellent choice especially for conferences or large networking parties. Each enquiry is carefully assessed to ensure that the format works effectively on the day.
For Christmas, our clients want to hear Carols on the steel drums. If you are thinking of office party ideas for Christmas, imagine 3 steel drum players without the tropical shirts, playing Christmas music. Early booking is essential to hire the band for key dates. Big Sand includes a selection of popular Carols to capture the spirit of the festive season. You can discover how Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer sounds on steel drums or hear a medley of Jingle Bells and Joy To The World.
You can hire the steel band to perform at any venue where you are having your Christmas party or on-site. The convenience of not taking up much space allows the steel drum band to be staged in the best location for maximum effect. There is no amplification (i.e. there are no electrics or PA to worry about) and the simple choice of 3 or 5 players makes choosing your entertainment as easy as possible.
