Sunyatta was the PERFECT band for our party of 30 - 60 somethings ... with a grippe of teenagers thrown in ... everybody danced and had fun ... they even threw in a greek song for us! Everyone wanted to know where i found the band ... i am already thinking of how i can use the 3 or 5 piece group at my next party! Shelly is a grand piano player and Sharon sings so beautifully and they are both a delight to have around! I can not reccommend this duo highly enough. It was also easy to "shop" at gig masters ... i didn't think to secure a band until 2 weeks before my husbands 50th birthday party (oops) and they found me this fabulous band who would probably have been my choice if i'd have had months to look!!! thanks sunyatta and gig masters!
