Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before booking us. If you have any queries that aren’t addressed below, please get in touch via the contact page.
Event Logistics
We are based in West Sussex and regularly perform across the county and neighbouring areas. If your event is a little further afield in the South East, please get in touch—we are always happy to discuss travel arrangements.
As a trio, we are relatively compact, but the steel pans themselves are large instruments. We generally need an area of approximately 3m x 2m. Once we are set up, we aren’t easily moved, so we’ll coordinate with you beforehand to find the perfect spot.
We play both outdoors and indoors, however we cannot play in rainy or windy conditions as this would affect the instruments, as would prolonged exposure to high temperatures. If outdoors, a gazebo is often a good option.
Performance Details
Our repertoire is a vibrant mix designed to suit any mood! We play traditional Caribbean calypso and reggae, alongside well-known pop hits, soul classics, and even seasonal favourites for Christmas events. You can view a sample of our song list on our [Audio Clips] page.
Not at all. Unlike a full-scale carnival band, our trio is designed to provide a “laid-back” atmosphere. We balance our sound so that your guests can enjoy the music while still being able to hold a comfortable conversation. If you want something more high-energy, we can always discuss our “Trio + Drummer” option.
A typical booking usually consists of two 45-minute sets with a short break in between. However, we are flexible and can adjust our timings to fit perfectly with your event requirements.
If there’s a song close to your heart, for an additional fee, we’d love to bring it to life on the steel pans. As each song takes time to arrange, the earlier you let us know the better – we will do our very best to make it happen!
