Feedback

  • Phil was very accommodating and easy to work with when we were making our arrangements and on the day he and Murray provided just the right touch of atmosphere that gave our event the festive vibe we had been hoping for. Our guests all loved it. We feel very fortunate to have connected up with them through the Gigmaster website. Sue and Peter Alexander -- Susan A, Jamestown, RI, 9/4/2011
  • Everyone loved Steel Accent at my party. The two musicians were on time and accommodating. -- Peter M, Windsor, CT, 10/8/2011
  • Steel Accent was very easy to work with and very accommodating for our cocktail hour at our wedding. All of our guest enjoyed their music very much!! -- Amber O, Waterbury, CT, 11/5/2011
  • Steel Accent did an excellent job for our wedding reception and cocktail hour. Everyone commented how great it was to hear "Here comes the bride" on steel drums, and even the older guests appreciated that there wasn't an over amplified band or DJ playing at the wedding. We're so glad we found steel accent, and passed their name/number along to many wedding attendees for their future parties. If you are looking for a soothing experience for your next gathering, event, or party, seriously consider these guys. They were great to work with on the business side of things as well. Thanks again guys! See you in 2020 for our 10 year anniversary! -- Joe C, Braintree, MA, 8/14/2010
  • These guys really did a phenominal job playing at our beach party yesterday. They made the day an extra special one for everybody in attendance. Countless friends and family made very positive comments throughout the day. They arrived 45 minutes prior to the start time and played a solid 4 flawless hours. All of them were very professional and courteous. I wish they could have played all night long. I'm already trying to think of an excuse for a party to get them back to the beach next summer. -- Richard F, Humarock, MA, 8/21/2010
  • Steel Accent sounded great! They were very friendly to deal with. I got many compliments about how great they were. I was a little focused on not tripping as I walked down the aisle, but I do remember they sounded awesome! -- Karin B, Manchester, CT, 6/18/2011
  • Steel Accents was great! Everyone at our fundraiser commented on how good they were. They also were very accomadating to our needs since we are a non profit and it was a fundraising event. I would highly recommend Steel Accents to anyone. -- Nathalie F, Mansfield, MA, 11/20/2010
  • Steel Accent was a pleasure to work with and our guests loved them! I can highly recommend them to anyone. Several of our guests were curious about the drums and they were kind enough to explain them and let them try them out. I hope to hire them again! -- Lois W, Sutton, MA, 7/3/2011
